[3dem] Scipion 2.0 is out and Xmipp 19.04

[Carlos Oscar S. Sorzano]

Dear all,

I also take this mail to announce the release of Xmipp 19.04. It's 
release notes are in https://github.com/I2PC/xmipp/wiki/Release-notes 
and this new version contains many new algorithms like stream processing 
up to 3D reconstruction and estimation of 3D heterogeneity, MotionCorrB 
(a  very fast movie alignment using B-splines that generalizes 
MotionCorr2 and our Optical Flow), deep consensus (an algorithm to merge 
the output of multiple particle pickers and save 2D classification 
time), swarm consensus (an algorithm that automatically constructs 
initial volumes based on proposals by other algorithms), initial volume 
validation using SAXS experiments, highres (3D reconstruction of 
homogeneous populations), angular consensus (an algorithm to compare the 
angular assignment by two different algorithms),  heterogeneity 
metaprotocol (3D classification) allowing detailed control of the 
intermediate steps, many resolution algorithms measuring the resolution 
locally, directionally and in tomograms (MonoRes, MonoDir and MonoTomo), 
and localDeblur (an algorithm to sharpen maps that uses the local 
resolution information).

A short presentation with some of these results can be seen at

Kind regards, Carlos Oscar
