traceratops documentation
Date: Jul 16, 2026 Version: 1.0.1
traceratops is an open-source Python toolbox for reproducible post-processing, quality control, analysis, and visualization of reconstructed chromatin tracing datasets. It provides a modular trace-level workflow for harmonizing chromatin trace tables from pyHiM and community-standard formats such as the 4DN FISH Omics Format, assessing trace completeness and barcode detection quality, filtering and annotating curated datasets, generating single-cell and ensemble distance or proximity matrices, analyzing multi-locus spatial interactions, and producing comparative, publication-ready visualizations that support standardized reuse of imaging-based spatial genomics data.
