Member Function Documentation

template<class TImage> virtual TimeStepType itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::ComputeGlobalTimeStep (  void *  GlobalData  )  const [virtual]

Computes the time step for an update given a global data structure. The data used in the computation may take different forms depending on the nature of the equations. This global data cannot be kept in the instance of the equation object itself since the equation object must remain stateless for thread safety. The global data is therefore managed for each thread by the finite difference solver filters. Currently, this function returns the user specified constant time step. Todo: compute timestep based on CFL condition. Implements itk::FiniteDifferenceFunction< TImage >.

template<class TImage> virtual PixelType itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::ComputeUpdate (  const NeighborhoodType &  neighborhood, void *  globalData, const FloatOffsetType &  offset = FloatOffsetType(0.0) )  [virtual]

This method computes the solution update for each pixel that does not lie on a the data set boundary. Implements itk::FiniteDifferenceFunction< TImage >. Reimplemented in itk::BinaryMinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >, and itk::MinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >.

template<class TImage> virtual const char* itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::GetClassName (   )  const [virtual]

Run-time type information (and related methods) Reimplemented from itk::FiniteDifferenceFunction< TImage >. Reimplemented in itk::BinaryMinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >, and itk::MinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >.

template<class TImage> virtual void* itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::GetGlobalDataPointer (   )  const [inline, virtual]

Returns a pointer to a global data structure that is passed to this object from the solver at each calculation. The idea is that the solver holds the state of any global values needed to calculate the time step, while the equation object performs the actual calculations. The global data should also be initialized in this method. Implements itk::FiniteDifferenceFunction< TImage >. Definition at line 86 of file itkCurvatureFlowFunction.h. References itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::GlobalDataStruct::m_MaxChange.

template<class TImage> const TimeStepType& itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::GetTimeStep (   )  const [inline]

Get the time step parameter Definition at line 106 of file itkCurvatureFlowFunction.h.

template<class TImage> itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::itkStaticConstMacro (  ImageDimension  , unsigned  int, Superclass::ImageDimension  )

Extract superclass dimension. Reimplemented in itk::BinaryMinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >, and itk::MinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >.

template<class TImage> Pointer itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::New (   )  [static]

Method for creation through the object factory. Reimplemented from itk::LightObject. Reimplemented in itk::BinaryMinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >, and itk::MinMaxCurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >.

template<class TImage> virtual void itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::ReleaseGlobalDataPointer (  void *  GlobalData  )  const [inline, virtual]

When the finite difference solver filter has finished using a global data pointer, it passes it to this method, which frees the memory. The solver cannot free the memory because it does not know the type to which the pointer points. Implements itk::FiniteDifferenceFunction< TImage >. Definition at line 98 of file itkCurvatureFlowFunction.h.

template<class TImage> void itk::CurvatureFlowFunction< TImage >::SetTimeStep (  const TimeStepType &  t  )  [inline]

Set the time step parameter Definition at line 102 of file itkCurvatureFlowFunction.h.
