Snakebids: Reproducible neuroimaging workflows as BIDS apps
By Tristan Kuehn, Jason Kai, and Ali Khan, Western University
Preferred sessions: Emergent Session #2 or Emergent Session #5 (But we’re flexible).
Short description and the goals for the session:
Distributing a reproducible neuroimaging workflow that relies on multiple constituent tools is challenging, but made easier by the use of workflow management tools. One such tool, Snakemake, has become increasingly popular but is challenging to use with BIDS datasets. In this session, we introduce Snakebids, an extension to Snakemake that makes it easier to write clear workflows for processing BIDS-formatted data, and exposes those workflows with the standard BIDS App interface.
Our goals are to introduce Snakebids to a wider audience and solicit feedback, feature requests, and/or contributions.
