NAME

mia-3dsegment-ahmed - Run a fuzzy c-means segmentation of a 3D image.

SYNOPSIS

mia-3dsegment-ahmed -i <in-file> -o <out-file> [options]

DESCRIPTION

mia-3dsegment-ahmed This program implements a variation of the paper:Mohamed N. Ahmed et. al, "A Modified Fuzzy C-Means Algorithm for Bias Field estimation and Segmentation of MRI Data", IEEE Trans. on Medical Imaging, Vol. 21, No. 3, March 2002, changes are: p=2, and exp

OPTIONS

-i --in-file=(input,required)
image to be segmented For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io
-o --out-file=(output,required)
class probability images, the image type must support multiple images and floating point values For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io
-a --no-of-classes=3
number of classes
-b --bias-correct
apply bias field correction
-c --class-centres=
initial class centers
-s --spread=64
spread parameter describing the strength of mattar distinction

Help & Info

-V --verbose=warning
verbosity of output, print messages of given level and higher priorities. Supported priorities starting at lowest level are:
info ‐ Low level messages
trace ‐ Function call trace
fail ‐ Report test failures
warning ‐ Warnings
error ‐ Report errors
debug ‐ Debug output
message ‐ Normal messages
fatal ‐ Report only fatal errors

-? --usage
print a short help
--version
print the version number and exit

Processing

--threads=-1
Maxiumum number of threads to use for processing,This number should be lower or equal to the number of logical processor cores in the machine. (-1: automatic estimation).
