Various DBP projects and other users have requested the ability to automate large tasks and interoperate with other image analysis tools. Nipype is a solution that is proving useful in this domain so we would like to further refine it as an option to the na-mic community.

Objective

Batch processing with Slicer and Nipype

Approach, Plan

• Work on HD use cases to improve batch processing framework
• Develop example workflows as templates for other projects
• Identify and if possible fix any issues that prevent smooth integration of slicer modules into batch workflows.

Progress

Delivery Mechanism

• Possibly nipype as an extension.
  • Need to resolve dependencies
  • Optionally require users to install independent version of scipy
