Welcome to Biobabel’s documentation

Biobabel is a Python library providing a unified interface for reading a plethora of physiology file formats.

Many different file formats exist for physiology signals such as cardiac (ECG, PPG) or respiratory data. Many packages exist in Python to read these formats but they load into different data structures. This package is a wrapper of sorts for already existing tools providing a unified easy-to-use interface.

Check out the Usage section for basic usage information, and Command-line usage for usage from the console (terminal).
