pyslingshot 0.2.0

Python implementation of the Slingshot pseudotime algorithm

Slingshot in Python

This is a Python implementation of the Slingshot pseudotime algorithm (Street et al., 2018). The original implementation is written in R: https://github.com/kstreet13/slingshot.

A complete working example is located in slingshot.ipynb, using a synthetically generated dataset.

Installation:

• pip install pyslingshot

Deprecated version

Older versions if pyslingshot (before v0.1.0) requires manually installing numpy, scipy, sklearn, and my fork of pcurvepy (https://github.com/mossjacob/pcurvepy).
