Efficient 2D/3D rendering over SSH using vispy and EGL
himena-relion is not a web-based application — this has a huge advantage in the interactive rendering of large images that is essential especially for cryo-ET. Owing to the powerful vispy backend and EGL offscreen rendering, himena-relion can provide efficient 2D/3D rendering even over SSH.
You can interactively view your RELION job pipeline as a flowchart, open jobs and its input/output files.
You can safely create a RELION external job by subclassing RelionExternalJob.
himena-relion also provides useful external jobs missing in the RELION GUI, such as
"Erase Golds" and "Shift Map".
