[Insight-developers] MRF and initial labeling

Thu Jun 23 13:59:26 EDT 2005

Luis, 

Thanks.  The Software Guide indicates several times that the MRFImageFilter is in the 
statistics namespace.  It is just in the itk namespace.

Unfortunately, the example does not make use of the labeled image.  It
defines a reader for it, but it is not used anywhere.  The MRF filter is provided 
the original intensity image and membership functions (defined in the intensity
image space).  But the label image is not passed to the MRF filter.

Jim

Hi Jim,

Yes, the MRF filter accepts a labeled image as one
of its inputs.

An Example is available in

             Insight/Examples/Statistics

and it appears in the new edition of the Software Guide

        http://www.itk.org/ItkSoftwareGuide.pdf

in Section 10.4.5, in pdf-page 709-715

    Regards,

        Luis
