Topological Cluster Classification in Python

Install

You can clone the repository from GitHub and install, with the following command.

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/yangyushi/tcclib
cd tcclib
python3 -m pip install . --user

You will need a C compiler (like GCC) and CMake to build tcc. tcclib also depends on numpy and pandas.

Typical Tasks

This package aims to provide a stand-alone Python interface for the TCC software.

The following figure illustrates the typical tasks for tcclib.

1. Analysing an existing TCC output folder. (Example)
2. Calling TCC to analyse an XYZ file (on the disk), then analysing the output. (Example)
3. Calling TCC to analyse a numpy array (in the memory), then analysing the output. (Example)

Details

• This package calles the TCC binary executable inside Python.
• When installing tcclib, the latest release of TCC code will be compiled, generating a privite binary executable for tcclib
• If you have your own TCC binary executable in the computer, it will not be affected.
