-====== AutoRTM ======
-<fc #800000>Documentation in progress</fc>
-AutoRTM is a software package to determine a 3D reconstruction from a single migrograph of icosahedral particles. The approach is fully automated and it is intended to be used during a microscopy session, to gain structural information from a sample while being initially evaluated.
-The program is provided with a graphical interface for easy configuration and data inspection, and builds upon the capabilities of [[auto3dem:home|Auto3DEM]] to perform the computations. Once started and configured, the program monitors a target directory, and process each micrograph found as soon as available. Steps performed are CTF determination, particle localization and 3D reconstruction (using the Random Model Computation method). All this information is displayed in the graphical interface. For further information please refer to the article cited below.
-===== Installation =====
-/*  *     If you don't already have a directory on your computer that is specific for external plugins for chimera, create one.
-  *     Download the file [[http://cryoem.ucsd.edu/programs/code/LocalFSC_chimera.tar.gz|LocalFSC_chimera.tar.gz]] in this directory and uncompress it.
-  *     In Chimera, go to Favorites->Preferences, from Category select Tools and add the directory containing the LocalFSC folder to the Locations.
-<WRAP center round info 75%>
-Local resolution analysis of the entire map can be done, using the same methodological approach, with programs incorporated into [[http://lsbr.niams.nih.gov/bsoft/|Bsoft]]. Specifically, local analysis and local adaptive filtering can be performed with //blocres// and //blocfilt//, respectively. For further information please read the article cited below.

-===== Usage =====
-/*Once opened, the LocalFSC module, a help button provides all the basic information on how to use it and on all the different options available in the interface.
-In order to get familiar with the module, here is provided a [[http://cryoem.ucsd.edu/programs/code/TestCaseLFSC.tar.gz|Test Dataset]] to download, which contains a simulated reconstruction of a ribosome (see article below for details). Specifically, the archive file contains three maps (two half maps and one map from all the particles) and a Chimera marker file with two markers pointing to two domains with different occupancy level.
-  * Uncompress the data.
-  * Open the tree maps and the marker file in Chimera.
-  * Verify that all three maps are overlapping and their pixel size is properly set in the Features->Coordinates menu of the Volume Viewer dialog window.
-  * Hide the two half maps.
-  * Open the module (Tools->Volume Data->LocalFSC in the main window or Tools->LocalFSC in Volume Viewer).
-  * In Settings, point the first and second map to the two half maps.
-  * Still in Settings, set the maximum resolution available (i.e. unfiltered out) in the half maps (in this case 10).
-  * In the main window, select one of the markers with Ctrl-left click and the press the Estimate button in Resolution. The estimate will be listed in the GUI, and the FSC plot will be shown in a separate window.
-  * You can select multiple markers where to estimate the resolution. In this case the program will not show their corresponding FSC plots.
