The overall aim of this tool it to improve data quality issues, to reduce review and acceptance times, and ultimately to reduce ping-to-public times. Furthermore, once one of the developed algorithms is mature and effective enough, existing commercial software might decide to adopt it with a relatively easy transition based on the existing working implementation.
The speed in prototyping, a characteristic of the adopted Python language, eases the decision
to abandon a developed algorithms in case that is not effective or a commercially supported
implementation
becomes available.
QC Tools is written in Python (3.11+ supported). The current stable release is 4.4.5.
