IndexError: list index out of range while doing experiment.separate()

[GergelyTuri]

Hi,
I try to process some of my own data based on the example notebook and I get a the following error when i get to the experiment.separate() line:

Doing region growing and data extraction....

This is a freshly installed Fissa (0.7.2) through pip in a new conda environment on Ubuntu. Python = 3.7.12. The version for suite2p is 0.10.3, although the processing was done with an earlier version.
The input is fairly standard, 1 plane (512x512) with 148 rois in the iscell group. The parameters seem to check out: num_rois: 148, len(rois): 148, len(cell_ids): 148

Can you provide a few pointers how i can troubleshoot this?

• It looks like there might have been an error with saving your signal in the results array. Can you try to see what is in this array before line 327 runs? That might give you an idea as to where the error is coming from.

I've encountered the same exact issue with a simple 300 frame tiff & 158 ROI zip file from ImageJ.
If I run fissa.Experiments() with maximum verbosity, what I see is:

Images: 
ROI sets:
nRegions: 8
expansion: 1

clearly there is an issue with reading the data in. After looking at the example.ipynb more closely, it appears that the images and roi paths should be sent as a list. Once I did that, the script correctly recognized my items.

For example, here's sample code that got past the error you described:

tiff_path = './GCaMP_AD.tif'
rois_path = './GC_AD_ROI.zip' 
experiment = fissa.Experiment([tiff_path], [rois_path], verbosity=6, nRegions=8)
experiment.separate()

Unfortunately, once we get past this error, we immediately arrive to another one ~ ValueError: linearrings: Input operand 0 does not have enough dimensions (has 1, gufunc core with signature (i,d)->() requires 2)

Welp, we keep grinding at it.

dear @EmrickLab
was it solved?
