[ITK] [ITK-users] Problem with ITK eigensystem

[Olivier Commowick]

Oh, and I remember only now : in fact it might just be that applying the patch I sent in the email solves this problem of infinite loop while still producing nan values

In the attached link (http://olivier.commowick.org/tmp/Test.zip <http://olivier.commowick.org/tmp/Test.zip>) you will find an example code and matrix that fails with it and not with VNL’s symmetric eigensystem (run on macOS 10.12, Xcode 8.2.1).

I have to say I am getting completely lost here so I am calling upon the community for help. If anyone knows this enough, could you try the test attached and see if you have any ideas of what is going on. That would help us a lot.
