Error in trackpy.emsd() function: TypeError: mean() got an unexpected keyword argument 'level'

[Jelle111]

I encountered an error while using the trackpy.emsd() function in the trackpy library. When calling trackpy.emsd() with my trajectory data;

em = tp.emsd(tm, 100/117., 20)

I received the following error:

TypeError: mean() got an unexpected keyword argument 'level'

Steps to Reproduce:

Execute the walkthrough tutorial with own Tif file Call the trackpy.emsd() function with the trajectory data. Expected Behavior: I expected the trackpy.emsd() function to compute the ensemble mean squared displacement (EMSD) without encountering any errors.

Actual Behavior: Instead, I received a TypeError indicating that the mean() function received an unexpected keyword argument 'level'.

Additional Information:

Version of trackpy library: 0.6.2 Operating System: MacOS Sonoma 14.2.1 with Apple M2 chip Python version: 3.11.5

Can you post the full trace ? Which version of pandas are you using ?

Due to changes in pandas version 2.0 and later, df.sum(level=1) is replaced by df.groupby(level=1).sum(), causing the emsd() function to be unavailable. I hope the author can update it as soon as possible.
