[ITK] [ITK-users] ShapeLabelMap Roundness/Perimeter Calculation Issue

Fri May 13 12:14:42 EDT 2016

Hello,

You can find additional information about how this parameter is defined in the following insight journal:
http://www.insight-journal.org/browse/publication/852

This method is generalizable to N-D, so it may not be the most accurate in 2D. The method can produce roundness numbers that are >1. However is should be consistent in debug and release modes. Getting consistent numeric computation with C++ and vectorizable operations can be challenging with different architectures.

You did not provide any specifics for the difference in computation between release and debug modes.

HTH,
Brad
