SarcGraph documentation
SarcGraph is a tool for automatic detection, tracking and analysis of z-discs and sarcomeres in movies of beating human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs).
Overview
SarcGraph was initially introduced in “Sarc-Graph: Automated segmentation, tracking, and analysis of sarcomeres in hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes”. This package is created to make SarcGraph more accessible to the broader research community.
SarcGraph vs legacy Sarc-Graph
This package is the new version of the legacy Sarc-Graph library. The new SarcGraph offers significant enhancements over its predecessor, such as new algorithms for improved sarcomere detection and tracking, faster computation times, and a more user-friendly library design.
Key Features
SarcGraph includes functions to detect and track z-discs and sarcomeres in beating cells, construct spatial graphs of z-discs and sarcomeres for network distance computation, and perform automated spatiotemporal analysis and data visualization.
