The tool uses a Docker Compose configuration file to automatically download all required components and create a dedicated Docker container for the conversion process. This approach ensures that the conversion environment is largely independent of the host system and minimizes dependency-related issues.

  • It provides a simple web-based user interface that allows users to initiate and manage model conversions without requiring command-line interaction.
  • It can be deployed locally on the same workstation that runs arivis Pro, making it a convenient solution for individual users and customers already using Docker Desktop–based workflows, such as instance segmentation.
  • Alternatively, it can be installed centrally within a customer's IT environment, enabling shared access and usage by multiple users.

To support the conversion of both Cellpose 3 and Cellpose 4 models, the container uses separate Python virtual environments, allowing different Cellpose versions to coexist and run within the same Docker container.
