Detailed Description

template<class TMeasurementVector>
class itk::Statistics::GaussianMembershipFunction< TMeasurementVector >

GaussianMembershipFunction models class membership through a multivariate Gaussian function.

GaussianMembershipFunction is a subclass of MembershipFunctionBase that models class membership (or likelihood) using a multivariate Gaussian function. The mean and covariance structure of the Gaussian are established using the methods SetMean() and SetCovariance(). The mean is a vector-type that is the same vector-type as the measurement vector but guaranteed to have a real element type. For instance, if the measurement type is an Vector<int,3>, then the mean is Vector<double,3>. If the measurement type is a VariableLengthVector<float>, then the mean is VariableLengthVector<double>. In contrast to this behavior, the covariance is always a VariableSizeMatrix<double>.

If the covariance is singular or nearly singular, the membership function behaves somewhat like an impulse located at the mean. In this case, we specify the covariance to be a diagonal matrix with large values along the diagonal. This membership function, therefore, will return small but differentiable values everywher and increase sharply near the mean.
