Summary
AMASS is a series of tools written in C++ that allows you to segment your mass spectrometry imaging dataset into regions with similar molecular signatures. The software allows for user input at each step of the process and returns the regions as well as the associated molecular signatures. It is composed of two dynamic libraries and a series of executables using the libraries as a base.
Additionally, we provide a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to allow easy access to the libraries. The GUI is written in python using the TKInter interface.
