Detailed Description

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage>
class itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >

Pipeline object to control data streaming for large data processing.

StreamingImageFilter is a pipeline object that allows the user to control how data is pulled through the pipeline. To generate its OutputRequestedRegion, this filter will divide the output into several pieces (controlled by SetNumberOfStreamDivisions), and call the upstream pipeline for each piece, tiling the individual outputs into one large output. This reduces the memory footprint for the application since each filter does not have to process the entire dataset at once. This filter will produce the entire output as one image, but the upstream filters will do their processing in pieces.

Member Function Documentation

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual const char* itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GetClassName (    )  const [virtual]

Run-time type information (and related methods). Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual const unsigned int& itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GetNumberOfStreamDivisions (    )  [virtual]

Get the number of pieces to divide the input. The upstream pipeline will be executed this many times.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual SplitterType* itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::GetRegionSplitter (    )  [virtual]

Get the helper class for dividing the input into chunks.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::itkStaticConstMacro (  InputImageDimension   , unsigned    int, InputImageType::ImageDimension    )

Dimension of input image.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> Pointer itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::New (    )  [static]

Method for creation through the object factory. Reimplemented from itk::Object.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> void itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::PrintSelf (  std::ostream &    os, Indent    indent )  const [protected, virtual]

Methods invoked by Print() to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes. Reimplemented from itk::ImageToImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::SetNumberOfStreamDivisions (  unsigned int    _arg )  [virtual]

Set the number of pieces to divide the input. The upstream pipeline will be executed this many times.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::SetRegionSplitter (  SplitterType *    _arg )  [virtual]

Set the helper class for dividing the input into chunks.

template<class TInputImage, class TOutputImage> virtual void itk::StreamingImageFilter< TInputImage, TOutputImage >::UpdateOutputData (  DataObject *    output )  [virtual]

Override UpdateOutputData() from ProcessObject to divide upstream updates into pieces. This filter does not have a GenerateData() or ThreadedGenerateData() method. Instead, all the work is done in UpdateOutputData() since it must update a little, execute a little, update some more, execute some more, etc. Reimplemented from itk::ProcessObject.
