Does this skill handle data scaling and transformations?

Yes, FlowIO automatically applies gain scaling and logarithmic transformations based on the FCS file metadata by default, though raw data can still be accessed if needed.

Does it support files with multiple datasets?

Yes, FlowIO includes a 'read_multiple_data_sets' utility specifically designed to handle and iterate through FCS files containing more than one dataset.

Which FCS versions are supported by this skill?

FlowIO supports Flow Cytometry Standard versions 2.0, 3.0, and 3.1.

Can I convert FCS files to CSV or Pandas DataFrames?

Yes, you can extract event data as NumPy arrays using flow_data.as_array() and then use standard Python tools like Pandas to save them as CSV or work with them as DataFrames.

データサイエンスとML

Parses, manipulates, and converts Flow Cytometry Standard (FCS) files for scientific data processing and analysis.

FlowIO is a specialized capability for handling Flow Cytometry Standard (FCS) files version 2.0 through 3.1. It provides a lightweight Python interface to extract event data as NumPy arrays, access rich metadata from the TEXT segment, and generate new FCS files from scratch. Ideal for bioinformatics pipelines and preprocessing workflows, this skill enables seamless integration of cytometry data with modern data science tools like Pandas and Scikit-learn, supporting advanced operations like gain scaling, log transformations, and handling multi-dataset files.
