Open Source MATLAB Data Formats Software for Linux

BioSig is a software library for processing of biomedical signals (EEG, ECG, etc.) with Matlab, Octave, C/C++ and Python. About 50 different data formats are supported.

The Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML) is an XML-based description language for representing computational models in systems biology. Visit the project web site to learn more.

The Sound Description Interchange Format (SDIF) is an established standard for the interchange of sound descriptions and analysis data. This project provides libraries, SDIF (in C) and Easdif (in C++), tools, and wrappers to read and write SDIF files.

Open Source Implementations for 3D-Surface Characterisation Algorithms according to ISO 25178 (Geometric Product Specification) in verifiable pseudocode (MATLAB). Implementation of an XML-based file exchange format according to upcoming ISO 25178-72.

EBF, which stands for Efficient Binary Format, is a binary file format for reading and writing binary data easily. Reading writing routines are currently available in C,C++,Fortran,Java, Python, IDL, MATLAB. A program called ebftkpy which has a set of utility functions to work with the .ebf files , e.g., viewing the contents and getting a summary, is also provided. The EBF specification is designed to be concise and easy to understand to make it easier for others to write their own code if needed. It is also designed to simplify the programming of input output routines in different programming languages. In a nutshell an EBF file is a collection of data objects. Each data object is specified by a unique name and a single file can have multiple data objects. Each data object is preceded by a meta-data or header which describes the binary data associated with it. Among other things, this header allows the files to be portable across systems with different endianess.

APEX Tools is a collection of utilities used in conjunction with the processing of airborne hyperspectral data developed for the ESA-Prodex supported Airborne Prism EXperiment (APEX).

A tool to register and superpose CTF MEG SAM(g2) result and MRI image into one gray-level image.

FieldTrip is the Matlab toolbox for EEG and MEG data. It includes algorithms for simple and advanced analysis, such as importing, preprocessing, time-frequency analysis, source reconstruction, statistical testing and connectivity analysis.

Search and export numerics from any text/ascii file. Data sets (scalar, vector, matrix) are given unique names, based on file content. Results can be generated for Matlab, IDL, Scilab, Octave, XML, HTML A wrapper exists for direct usage from Matlab.

Tools for mass spectrometry, especially for protein mass spectrometry and proteomics: Quantification tools, converters for Applied Biosystems (Q Star and Q Trap), calculation of in-silico fragmentation spectra, converter for Mascot result files
