SYNOPSIS

mia-3dsegment-ahmed -i <in-file> -c <class-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

File-IO

-i --in-file=(input, required); io

image to be segmented For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io

-c --class-file=(output, required); io

class probability images, the image type must support multiple images and floating point values For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io

-b --out-file=(output); io

Bias corrected image will be of the same type like the input image. If this parameter is not given, then the bias correction will not be applied. For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io

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
