Detailed Description

Wrap of the vnl_amoeba algorithm.

AmoebaOptimizer is a wrapper around the vnl_amoeba algorithm which is an implementation of the Nelder-Meade downhill simplex problem. For most problems, it is a few times slower than a Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm but does not require derivatives of its cost function. It works by creating a simplex (n+1 points in ND space). The cost function is evaluated at each corner of the simplex. The simplex is then modified (by reflecting a corner about the opposite edge, by shrinking the entire simplex, by contracting one edge of the simplex, or by expanding the simplex) in searching for the minimum of the cost function.

The methods AutomaticInitialSimplex() and SetInitialSimplexDelta() control whether the optimizer defines the initial simplex automatically (by constructing a very small simplex around the initial position) or uses a user supplied simplex size.

AmoebaOptimizer can only minimize a function.

unsigned long itk::Object::AddObserver ( const EventObject event,
Command  
) const [inherited]

unsigned long itk::Object::AddObserver ( const EventObject event,
Command  
) [inherited]

Allow people to add/remove/invoke observers (callbacks) to any ITK object. This is an implementation of the subject/observer design pattern. An observer is added by specifying an event to respond to and an itk::Command to execute. It returns an unsigned long tag which can be used later to remove the event or retrieve the command. The memory for the Command becomes the responsibility of this object, so don't pass the same instance of a command to two different objects

virtual void itk::AmoebaOptimizer::AutomaticInitialSimplexOff (  )  [virtual]

virtual void itk::AmoebaOptimizer::AutomaticInitialSimplexOn (  )  [virtual]

static void itk::LightObject::BreakOnError (  )  [static, inherited]

This method is called when itkExceptionMacro executes. It allows the debugger to break on error.

virtual LightObject::Pointer itk::Object::CreateAnother (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Create an object from an instance, potentially deferring to a factory. This method allows you to create an instance of an object that is exactly the same type as the referring object. This is useful in cases where an object has been cast back to a base class.

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOff (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Turn debugging output off.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOn (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Turn debugging output on.

virtual void itk::LightObject::Delete (  )  [virtual, inherited]

Delete an itk object. This method should always be used to delete an object when the new operator was used to create it. Using the C delete method will not work with reference counting.

virtual bool itk::AmoebaOptimizer::GetAutomaticInitialSimplex (  )  [virtual]

virtual const ParametersType& itk::SingleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer::GetCachedCurrentPosition (  )  [virtual, inherited]

virtual const DerivativeType& itk::SingleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer::GetCachedDerivative (  )  [virtual, inherited]

virtual const MeasureType& itk::SingleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer::GetCachedValue (  )  [virtual, inherited]

Return Cached Values. These method have the advantage of not triggering a recomputation of the metric value, but it has the disadvantage of returning a value that may not be the one corresponding to the current parameters. For GUI update purposes, this method is a good option, for mathematical validation you should rather call GetValue().

Command* itk::Object::GetCommand ( unsigned long  tag  )  [inherited]

Get the command associated with the given tag. NOTE: This returns a pointer to a Command, but it is safe to asign this to a Command::Pointer. Since Command inherits from LightObject, at this point in the code, only a pointer or a reference to the Command can be used.

virtual const CostFunctionType* itk::SingleValuedNonLinearOptimizer::GetCostFunction (  )  [virtual, inherited]

Get the cost function.

CostFunctionAdaptorType* itk::SingleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer::GetCostFunctionAdaptor ( void   )  [protected, inherited]

virtual const bool& itk::SingleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer::GetMaximize (  )  [virtual, inherited]

virtual unsigned int itk::AmoebaOptimizer::GetMaximumNumberOfIterations (  )  [virtual]

const MetaDataDictionary& itk::Object::GetMetaDataDictionary ( void   )  const [inherited]

Warning:
This reference may be changed.

bool itk::SingleValuedNonLinearVnlOptimizer::GetMinimize (  )  const [inline, inherited]

The optimization algorithm will terminate when the simplex diameter and the difference in cost function at the corners of the simplex falls below user specified thresholds. The simplex diameter threshold is set via method SetParametersConvergenceTolerance() with the default value being 1e-8. The cost function convergence threshold is set via method SetFunctionConvergenceTolerance() with the default value being 1e-4.

virtual void itk::Object::SetReferenceCount ( int   )  [virtual, inherited]

Sets the reference count (use with care)

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

void itk::Optimizer::SetScales ( const ScalesType scales  )  [inherited]

Set current parameters scaling.

void itk::AmoebaOptimizer::StartOptimization ( void   )  [virtual]

Start optimization with an initial value.

Reimplemented from itk::Optimizer.

virtual void itk::Object::UnRegister (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Decrease the reference count (release by another object).

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.
