Version 0.2

The version contains significant enhancements, including:

  • Much-improved feature-finding, merged from Daniel Allan's mr project (feature.py, replacing identification.py) with uncertainty estimation, along with tools for filtering, analyzing, and plotting trajectories
  • Prediction framework for tracking particles whose motion is correlated between frames (Nathan Keim)
  • KDTree-based linking, merged from Nathan Keim's branch of trackpy, which is 2X faster on typical data
  • Numba-accelerated linking and feature-finding, falling back on pure Python if numba is not available
  • Features for processing large data sets "out of core" (on disk)
  • Access to different linking strategies through keyword arguments (Type help(link) or help(link_df) for details.)
  • Simple, fast way to read and write data in files; easily extensible to formats used by individual research groups
  • A set of examples and guides, provided separately
