nixworks

This library is a Python package containing format converters and convenience scripts and tools for working with the NIX (Neuroscience information exchange) format.

Library content

Convenience scripts

This library contains convenience scripts for

  • plotting data stored in the NIX format
  • importing data from a Python pandas DataFrame into a NIX DataFrame

Converter tools

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 (Neuroscience information exchange) format

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.

More information about the project including related projects as well as tutorials and examples can be found at our odML project page.
