[ITK] [ITK-users] Undefined references to methods of template classes

Wed Jan 14 17:05:19 EST 2015

Hi again.
I fixed all the errors and got my library, now ready to be tested.
It contains an encapsulation, on the one hand, of the class
itkBinaryImageToShapeLabelMapFilter in order to get image shape descriptors
of a 3D binary image, and on the other hand, the same for the class
itkScalarImageToTextureFeaturesFilter to get image texture features of a 3D
scalar image.

I pass as input image to both classes a binary 3D Nifti image (150x150x150)
containing a cylinder where the inside voxels are 255 and the outside
voxels are 0.

As for the shape issue, it's very strange to me that the call to
GetNumberOfLabelObjects on a itk::LabelMap object returns a value of 0. The
main code is as follows:

binaryImageToShapeLabelMapFilter->SetInput(_input);
binaryImageToShapeLabelMapFilter->ComputePerimeterOn();
binaryImageToShapeLabelMapFilter->Update();

LabelMapType::Pointer labelMap =
binaryImageToShapeLabelMapFilter->GetOutput();

int nrOfLabelObjects = labelMap->GetNumberOfLabelObjects();

And, as for the texture features, the result of the filter does not seem to
be very logic:

Energy = 1
Entropy = 0
Correlation = 1
Local Homogeneity = 0
Inertia = 0
Cluster Shade = 0
Cluster Prominence = 0

I've also tested this with a scalar 3D Nifti image and the results are the
same.

And the question is: What kind of image do I have to pass to the filters so
that the code would return a more logic expected answer?

Thank you very much in advance.
My best regars.
/Francisco
