yet another IMOD wrapper

yet-another-imod-wrapper

A simple Python API for aligning single axis tilt-series in IMOD.

from yet_another_imod_wrapper import (
    align_tilt_series_using_fiducials, 
    align_tilt_series_using_patch_tracking
)
import mrcfile
import numpy as np

# load tilt series into (n, y, x) numpy array
tilt_series = mrcfile.read('my_tilt_series.mrc')

# align using fiducials
align_tilt_series_using_fiducials(
    tilt_series=tilt_series,
    tilt_angles=np.arange(-60, 63, 3),
    pixel_size=1.35,
    fiducial_size=10,
    nominal_rotation_angle=85,
    basename='my_tilt_series',
    output_directory='fiducials'
)

# align using patch-tracking
align_tilt_series_using_patch_tracking(
    tilt_series=tilt_series,
    tilt_angles=np.arange(-60, 63, 3),
    pixel_size=1.35,
    patch_size=1000,
    patch_overlap_percentage=33,
    basename='my_tilt_series',
    output_directory='patch_tracking'
)
