AngioQuant is an automated image analysis tool for quantification of angiogenesis. AngioQuant provides quantitative and repeatable measurements of the lengths, sizes, and numbers of junctions (branching points) in tubule complexes.
AngioQuant is written by Antti Niemistö.

 

 

 

The BN/PBN Toolbox is written in MATLAB and can be used to work with Boolean Networks and Probabilistic Boolean Networks. It includes functions for simulating the network dynamics, computing network statistics (numbers and sizes of attractors, basins, transient lengths, Derrida curves, percolation on 2-D lattices, influence matrices), computing state transition matrices and obtaining stationary distributions, inferring networks from data, generating random networks and functions, visualization and printing, intervention, and membership testing of Boolean functions.
This toolbox is written and maintained by Harri Lähdesmäki and Ilya Shmulevich.
