This library is a Python package containing format converters and convenience scripts and tools for working with the NIX (Neuroscience information exchange) format.
This library contains convenience scripts for
The library contains converter tools to converter data between NIX and other neuroscience specific data formats. Currently the following converters are available:
Both converters can be found in nixworks/converters
. More information on both converters can be found in the docs
folder.
The NIX data model allows to store fully annotated scientific datasets, i.e. the data together with its metadata within the same container. Our aim is to achieve standardization by providing a common/generic data structure for a multitude of data types.
The source code of the core python library is freely available on
GitHub and can be installed via the
Python package manager pip
by typing pip install nixio
.
