💖 TFF_SIMPLE_COMPARE.PY 💖

🌸 NAME 🌸

tff_simple_compare.py — compare tractograms by data coordinates subtraction 🧚

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so here's the whole vibe, the usage line first:

usage: tff_simple_compare.py [-h] [--reference REFERENCE]
              IN_TRACTOGRAM IN_TRACTOGRAM

not me noticing IN_TRACTOGRAM shows up twice up there 👀 that's just how the usage line is written, bestie, we don't make the rules.

Simple comparison of tractogram by subtracting the coordinates' data. 🫶

lowkey important: this does not account for shuffling of streamlines. it's just simple A-B operations, no cap. 🙈

and for the number girlies, the expectations:

• Differences below 1e^3 are expected for affine with large rotation/scaling.
• Difference below 1e^6 are expected for isotropic data with small rotation.

like, if your numbers are under those, you're slaying, periodt. 👑

🎀 positional arguments: 🎀

• IN_TRACTOGRAM — Tractogram filename. Format must be one of trk, tck, vtk, fib, dpy, trx. literally those six, no substitutions bestie, pick from the menu 💖

---

💅 options: 💅

• -h, --help — show this help message and exit. the classic. iconic. always there for you when you forget everything 🥹
• --reference REFERENCE — Reference anatomy for tck/vtk/fib/dpy file support (.nii or .nii.gz). so if you're rolling with those formats, you gotta hand over your reference anatomy, no skipping it 🌸
