Features
--------

Provides a robust particle tracking algorithm using the Linear Assignment Problem, with various cost functions for linking.

See the `preprint`_ and `associated repository`_ for the algorithm and parameter optimization by `Ray-Tune`_.

Requirements
------------

Python >= 3.7.11 is supported.
The software is tested against Python 3.7-3.10 in Ubuntu, and 3.10 in MacOS and Windows environments,
but the other combinations should also be fine. Please `file an issue`_ if you encounter any problem.

Installation
------------

You can install *LapTrack* via pip_ from PyPI_:

.. code:: console

   $ pip install laptrack

In Google Colaboratory, try

.. code:: console

   $ pip install --upgrade laptrack spacy flask matplotlib

to update the pre-installed packages.


Usage
-----

Please see the Usage_ for details.
The example notebooks are provided in `docs/examples <https://github.com/yfukai/laptrack/tree/main/docs/examples>`_.
