ImageJ

There was a hackathon in Madison following the ImageJ Conference 2015.

Topic

There were two primary topics for this hackathon:

1. Learnathon. For the first half, we covered the current ImageJ2 and SciJava APIs with informal presentations and workshops. We spent some time beefing up and updating the tutorials.
2. Ops. The second half focused on development of the ImageJ Ops component for "write once, run anywhere" image processing. We added more algorithms and routines to the core library, and continued polishing the Ops framework itself, as well as the ImageJ2 data model.

Side projects

As always, there were lots of other exciting collaborations going on, too!

• Troubleshoot the SCIFIO-ITK-bridge in SimpleITK (Mark + Matt)
• Generalize MATLABCommands to a general framework that could be used in BAR (Mark + Tiago)
