Our in-house experts Mallory Wittwer and Edward Andò will give a workshop on nD Image Visualisation with Open-Source Tools during our next imaging lunch. Open to all EPFL PhD students and Postdocs!

Starting from the relatively easy case of a greyscale 2D image and going all the way to a multichannel 3D image evolving in time, we will discuss and illustrate image visualisation.

Audience: Scientists, engineers, PhD and masters students. No programming or mathematical knowledge is required.

The important topic of visualisation will be covered in two main sections:

Concepts in image visualisation:

  • Lookup tables and Colormaps
  • Transparency and overlays
  • Glyphs: Points, objects, flowlines and vector fields
  • 3D→2D projections for volume inspection
  • Volume rendering
Software packages for visualisation with examples:
  • Matlplotlib and Fiji
  • Paraview and tomoPy
  • Pyvista
  • Napari
  • Neuroglancer
Feel free to come with your data for which you have visualisation questions!

Registration required
