Firstly, in the paper-"N4ITK:Nick's N3 ITK Implementation For MRI Bias Field Correction" , I found there are 9 parameters (m_MaskMabel, m_numberOfHistogamBins, m_WeinerFilterNoise, m_BiasFieldFullWitdthAtHalfMaximum... ,)need to set, it can also be found in the N4ITK package. However, in the lastest ITK4.0, in the project-ITKBiasCorrectionTestDriver, I open the CMakeLists.txt, and some code is as followiing:<br>
<br>itk_add_test(NAME itkN4BiasFieldCorrectionImageFilterTest1<br> COMMAND ITKBiasCorrectionTestDriver<br> --compare DATA{Baseline/N4ControlPoints_3D.nii.gz}<br> ${ITK_TEST_OUTPUT_DIR}/N4ControlPoints_3D.nii.gz<br>
itkN4BiasFieldCorrectionImageFilterTest<br> 2<br> DATA{${ITK_DATA_ROOT}/Input/HeadMRVolumeCompressed.mha} # input<br> ${ITK_TEST_OUTPUT_DIR}//N4ControlPoints_3D.nii.gz # <b>control point lattice .</b> , I also can not understand the mean of this parameter<br>
<br> 3 # shrink factor<br> 10x10x10 # number of iterations<br> none # mask<br>
150 # spline distance<br> )<br><br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>The control point lattice is the output defining the bias field. </div><div>You need to remember that this is a test, not a user-level</div><div>application which is what N4.cxx encapsulates.</div><div><br></div><div>Nick</div><div><br></div></div></div></body></html>
