e2proc3d

Generic 3D image processing program: The main tasks are: (1) Convert volumes from one format to another, (2) Perform basic image processing operations such as filters, masks, normalization, and etc., (3) Resize/rescale volumes, and (4) Compute FSC curves, structure factors, etc.

Typical usage

e2proc3d does not support MPI.

e2proc3d is generic 3D image processing and file format conversion program. All EMAN2 recognized file formats accepted (see Wiki for list).

To create a new image, rather than reading from a file, specify ':<nx>:<ny>:<nz>:<value>' as an input filename.

For specific details on various options, use 'e2proc3d.py –help'.

1. Convert MRC format to HDF format.

e2proc3d.py test.mrc test.hdf

2. Apply a 10 A low-pass filter to a volume and write output to a new file.

e2proc3d.py threed.hdf threed.filt.hdf --process=filter.lowpass.gauss:cutoff_freq=0.1

3. Extract a reconstruction from a refinement directory as an HDF file usable with Chimera.

e2proc3d.py bdb:refine_02#threed_filt_04 map_02_04.hdf

4. Create a new 64x64x64 volume, initialize it as 1, then apply a hard spherical mask to 0.

e2proc3d.py :64:64:64:1 myvol.hdf --process mask.sharp:outer_radius=25

Input

Main Parameters

input_volume
Input volume: Input volume file name. (default required string)
output_file
Output file name: Type of output file depends on the option settings. (default required string)
--medianshrink
Downsample volume with median filter: Downsample the volume by a factor of '<n>' by computing the local median. (default 1)
--meanshrink
Downsample volume with averaging filter: Downsample the volume by a factor of '<n>' by computing the local average. (default 1)
--meanshrinkbig
Downsample large volume with averaging filter: Downsample the volume by a factor of '<n>' without reading the entire volume into RAM. The output file (after shrinking) must fit into RAM. If specified, this must be the ONLY option on the command line. Any other options will be ignored. Output data type will match input data type. It works only on single image files, not stack files. (default 1)
--scale
Rescale volume: Rescale the volume by '<n>'. Generally use with –clip option. (default 1.0)
--sym
Symmetry to impose: Point-group symmetry to impose. Choices are:'c<n>', 'd<n>', 'h<n>', 'tet', 'oct', and 'icos'. (default c1)
--averager
Averager: Averager used for –average and –sym options. (default mean)
--clip
Window to specific size [Pixels]: Window (pad or clip) volume to the specific dimensions. Specify 1, 3 or 6 arguments; '<x>[,<y>,<z>[,<xc>,<yc>,<zc>]]'. (default none)
--fftclip
Rescale by padding FFT: Make the output have this size with rescaling by padding FFT. The argument format is '<x>,<y>,<z>'. (default none)
--process
Apply processor: Apply a processor named 'processor_name' with all its parameters/values;'<processor_name>:<param1>=<value1>:<param2>=<value2>'. Type 'e2help.py processors -v 2' to see available processors. (default none)
--apix
Pixels size [A/pixel] for S scaling: Pixels size [A/pixel] for S scaling. (default 0.0)
--origin
Set origin of coordinates: Set the coordinates for the pixel (0,0,0) to '<x>,<y>,<z>' for Chimera. THIS HAS NO IMPACT ON IMAGE PROCESSING! (default none)
--mult
Scale densities: Scale the densities by a fixed number in the output. (default 1.0)
--multfile
Multiply by another volume: Multiply the volume by another volume of identical size. This can be used to apply masks, etc. (default none)
--matchto
Match filtration: Match filtration of input volume to this specified volume. (default none)
--outmode
Use specific bit-depth: All EMAN2 programs write images with 4-byte floating point values when possible by default. This allows specifying an alternate format when supported (int8, int16, int32, uint8, uint16, uint32). Values are rescaled to fill MIN-MAX range. (default float)
--outnorescale
Do not rescale float values: If specified, floating point values will not be rescaled when writing data as integers. Values outside of range are truncated. (default False)
--add
Add constant: Add a constant 'f' to the densities. (default 0.0)
--addfile
Add another volume: Add the volume to another volume of identical size. (default none)
--calcfsc
Calculate FSC: Calculate a FSC curve between two models. Output is a txt file. This option is the name of the second volume. (default none)
--calcsf
Calculate radial structure factor: Calculate a radial structure factor. Must specify –apix option. (default none)
--calcradial
Calculate radial density by shell: Calculate the radial density by shell. Output file is a text file. 0 - mean amp, 2 - min, 3 - max, 4- sigma. (default -1)
--setsf
Set radial structure factor: Set the radial structure factor. Must specify –apix option. (default none)
--tophalf
Keep only top half map: The output only keeps the top half map. (default False)
--inputto1
Set all voxels to 1: All voxels in the input file are set to 1 after reading. This can be used with mask.* processors to produce a mask file of the correct size. (default False)
--icos5fhalfmap
Input is icos 5f top half map: The input is the icos 5f top half map generated by the –tophalf option. (default False)
--outtype
Output image format: Set output image format; mrc, imagic, hdf, and etc. (default none)
--first
First image ID to process: The ID of the first image in the input to process [0 - n-1]. (default 0)
--trans
Translate map: Translate map by dx,dy,dz. (default none)
--resetxf
Reset transform matrix: Reset an existing transform matrix to the identity matrix. (default False)
--align

--ralignzphi
Refine Z alignment: Refine Z alignment within +-10 pixels and phi +-15 degrees (for C symmetries). Specify name of alignment reference here not with –alignref option. (default none)
--alignref
Reference volume file: Alignment to reference volume. May only be specified once. (default none)
--alignctod
Rotate C to D symmetry: Rotate a map already aligned for C symmetry so the best 2-fold is positioned for specified D symmetry. Does not impose specified symmetry. (default none)

--icos5to2
Rotate icosahedral 5- to 2-fold: Rotate an icosahedral map from 5-fold on Z (EMAN standard) to 2-fold on Z (MRC standard) orientation. (default False)
--icos2to5
Rotate icosahedral 2- to 5-fold: Rotate an icosahedral map from 2-fold on Z (MRC standard) to 5-fold on Z (EMAN standard) orientation. (default False)
--last
Last image ID to process: The ID of the last image in the input to process. (default -1)
--swap
Swap byte order: Swap the byte order. (default False)
--average
Computes global average: Computes the average of a stack of 3D volumes. (default False)
--append
Append to stack: Append output volumes to a stack of volumes. i.e., do not write inplace (opposite of 'inplace' in e2proc2d.py). (default False)
--unstacking
Unstack output: Process a stack of 3D images, then output it as a series of numbered single image files. (default False)
--tomoprep
Prepare tomography annotation: Produce a special HDF file designed for rapid interactive tomography annotation. This option should be used alone. (default False)
--step
Processes only subset: Specify '<init>,<step>'. Processes only a subset of the input data (e.g. '0,2' would process only the even numbered particles). (default none)


Advanced Parameters

--ppid
Set PID of parent process: Set the PID of the parent process, used for cross platform PPID. (default -2)
--verbose
Verbose level [0-9]: Higher number means higher level of verboseness. (default 0)


Output

Type of output file depends on the option settings.


Description

This program operates on single 3D volume files, stacks of 3-D volume files, and EMAN2 bdb databases. It has many command-line options for specific tasks. The generic '–process' option is by far the most powerful, offering access to 180+ different image processing operations. For a list, type
