| --version |
None |
show program's version number and exit |
| --alltiltseries |
None |
Use all tilt series in the folder. Acceptable file extensions include hdf, mrc, mrcs, st. |
| --zeroid |
int |
Index of the center tilt. Ignored when rawtlt is provided. |
| --tltstep |
float |
Step between tilts. Ignored when rawtlt/mdoc is provided. Set to 0 if tilt present in header. |
| --rawtlt |
str |
Specify a text file contains raw tilt angles. Will look for files with the same name as the tilt series if a directory is provided |
| --mdoc |
str |
Specify a SerialEM .mdoc file or a folder containing same-named .mdoc files |
| --npk |
int |
Number of landmarks to use (such as gold fiducials). Default is 20. |
| --tltax |
float |
Angle of the tilt axis. Note the angle stored internally will have an opposite sign. The program will calculate one if this option is not provided. |
| --tltkeep |
float |
Fraction of tilts to keep in the reconstruction. |
| --tltrange |
str |
Include only tilts between 'START' and 'STOP', i.e. -40.0,40.0. Default behavior is to include all tilts. |
| --outsize |
str |
Size of output tomograms. choose from 1k, 2k and 4k. default is 1k |
| --niter |
str |
Number of iterations for bin8, bin4, bin2 images. Default if 2,1,1,1 |
| --bytile |
None |
make final tomogram by tiles.. |
| --load |
None |
load existing tilt parameters. |
| --notmp |
None |
Do not write temporary files. |
| --pkkeep |
float |
Fraction of landmarks to keep in the tracking. |
| --compressbits |
int |
Number of bits of precision in output tomogram with lossless compression. -1 -> uncompressed float |
| --clipz |
int |
Z thickness of the final tomogram output. default is -1, (5/16 of tomogram length) |
| --bxsz |
int |
Box size of the particles for tracking. Default is 32. Maybe helpful to use a larger one for fiducial-less cases.. |
| --pk_maxval |
float |
Maximum Density value of landmarks (n sigma). Default is -5 |
| --pk_mindist |
float |
Minimum distance between landmarks, as fraction of micrograph length. Default is 0.125 |
| --correctrot |
None |
correct for global rotation and position sample flat in tomogram. |
| --filterto |
float |
filter to abs. |
| --filterres |
float |
filter final tomogram to target resolution (in A). Default is 40 |
| --extrapad |
None |
Use extra padding for tilted reconstruction. slower and cost more memory, but reduce boundary artifacts when the sample is thick |
| --moretile |
None |
Sample more tiles during reconstruction. Slower, but reduce boundary artifacts when the sample is thick |
| --rmbeadthr |
float |
Density value threshold (of sigma) for removing beads. high contrast objects beyond this value will be removed. default is -1 for not removing. try 10 for removing fiducials |
| --threads |
int |
Number of threads |
| --tmppath |
str |
Temporary path |
| --verbose, -v |
int |
Verbose |
| --noali |
None |
skip initial alignment |
| --dryrun |
None |
skip final reconstruction |
| --patchtrack |
int |
use patch tracking before landmark based alignment. input 0/1/2 as the number of patch tracking iterations. |
| --posz |
None |
auto positioning along z axis |
| --xdrift |
None |
apply extra correction for drifting along x axis |
| --ppid |
int |
Set the PID of the parent process, used for cross platform PPID |
| --reconmode |
str |
Intepolation mode for reconstruction. default is trilinear. check e2help.py for details. Not recommended to change. |
| --maxshift |
float |
Maximum shift between tilt(/image size). default is 0.35 |
| --highpass |
int |
initial highpass filter for alignment in pixels. default if 3 |
| --badone |
None |
Remove one bad tilt during coarse alignment. seem to work better with smaller maxshift... |
| --flip |
None |
Flip the tomogram by rotating the tilt axis. need --load existing alignment |
| --autoclipxy |
None |
Optimize the x-y shape of the tomogram to fit in the tilt images. only works in bytile reconstruction. useful for non square cameras. |
