📝 Description
Type: 🪲
bugfix
Currently, normalize_trans_probs performs multiple data type conversions to deal with zero divisions. The last conversion (with convert_dtypes) yields a DataFrame with an object array that breaks the to_hdf method. This PR aims to implement a simplified treatment for zero divisions that avoids this problem. However, it currently doesn't work for all atom data files for some reason.
