Current release
The current release of the MiToBo core distribution is 1.5, the current release of the extended MiToBo-Plugins distribution is 1.5.
Since release 1.3 we support Maven for managing MiToBo's resources.
You can download `MiToBo` distributions as well as the Maven artifacts from our Maven server:

Using MiToBo with ImageJ 1.x:
For using MiToBo with ImageJ it is the easiest to download the distribution zipfile,
which already includes all dependencies and ships with some scripts to run MiToBo's operators and plugins out of the box. See the installation instructions for further information.
There are two MiToBo distributions available:
- MiToBo:
this package contains the core of MiToBo, i.e. all operators, the MiToBo runners for operator execution and also Grappa;
not included are the plugins to run MiToBo from within ImageJ 1.x, hence, this distribution is mainly for stand-alone usage of MiToBo and development purposes - MiToBo-Plugins:
this package contains the complete MiToBo distribution, some special plugins like the MTB Cell Counter, and in addition some ImageJ plugins to run MiToBo operators from within ImageJ; you should download the MiToBo-Plugins distribution if you like to use MiToBo with ImageJ
MiToBo's implementation requires at least Java 1.6 (but Java 1.7 is not yet fully supported).
Below the following kinds of files are available for download:
- Distribution: complete distributions including all dependencies, scripts, documentation, etc.
- Binaries only: only the jar archives, no dependencies nor documentation
- API: Javadoc API

Requirements (for MiToBo < 1.3)
MiToBo requires Java 1.6 or later.
Note: Java 1.7 is currently not fully supported!
The following external jars are needed to run MiToBo plugins and use the code.
Note that the binary zip file already includes all jars required, there is no need for explicit download!
MiToBo depends on the following external jars:
- ImageJ, >= Version 1.47d
- XMLBeans, Version 2.5.0
- XStream, Version 1.3.1
- LIBSVM, Version 3.1
- Loci Tools, Version 4.3.3
- Jama, Version 1.0.2
- JavaHelp, Version 2.0_05
- SezPoz, Version 1.9
- JGraph, Version 1.7.1.8
- JAI ImageIO, Version 1.1 (only required for MiToBo 0.9)
Project internal libraries
MiToBo also relies on some libraries provided by the MiToBo project itself.
In particular XML schemes for representing the history graphs and MiToBo's online help are included in separate jar archives.
Note:
You do not need to download these libraries explicitly. If you download the binary zip file all jars and libraries are already included.
The MiToBo internal archive files included in the zip file are the following ones:
- ALDGraphml, Version 1.0.0 (Alida extensions for graphML):
- Binary jar
- MTBXml, Version 1.0.0 (MiToBo XML I/O for several datatypes, based on XMLBeans):
- Binary jar
- MiToBo-Help, Version 1.0.0 (MiToBo JavaHelp pages):
- Binary jar
The following library is only required for MiToBo-0.9:
- MTBImageIO-Ext, Version 0.9 (improved image I/O based on ImageIO-Ext):
- Binary jar
- Source code zip
- Alternatively, the ImageIO-Ext library can be used, which depends on the JAI ImageIO library and the JAI library.
MTBImageIO-Ext is simply the TIFF part of ImageIO-Ext with slight adjustments to remove dependency on the JAI library.
