Infrastructure need for AMICO? #167

Closed rosenvic closed 1 year ago

rosenvic commented 1 year ago

Hello, I am new to scripting and to diffusion analyses so my apologies for the fairly basic questions. I have received a script to run AMICO from a collaborator that I intend to adapt for my project needs and I noticed their script uses singularity. My lab has a preference not to introduce the use of virtual machines on our linux computers. Is singularity necessary for running AMICO? If not, are there any steps I need to take to ensure I am able to run AMICO on my linux computer?

Hi @rosenvic,

You do not need Singularity to run AMICO; you only need to have a Python environment on your linux system. You can install AMICO by running pip install dmri-amico, and then you can execute your script.

In the wiki you can found the complete installation guide and some tutorials.
