SIMPLI is a platform agnostic pipeline for the analysis of highly multiplexed histological imaging data.
More Information about SIMPLI and its use can be found in the wiki.
To try SIMPLI:
- Install Singularity
- Install Nextflow
- Run:
nextflow run ciccalab/SIMPLI -profile test
This will run SIMPLI on minimal example dataset distributed in this repository. For more details on the example dataset and the associated analysis workflow see the example-workflow page.
The expected installation time on a desktop computer (Ubuntu 21.04) is of about 20 minutes. The expected run time with the example run on a desktop computer (Ubuntu 21.04) is of about 45 minutes.
