Detailed Description

template<class TSample>
class itk::Statistics::KdTree< TSample >

This class provides methods for k-nearest neighbor search and related data structures for a k-d tree.

An object of this class stores instance identifiers in a k-d tree that is a binary tree with childrens split along a dimension among k-dimensions. The dimension of the split (or partition) is determined for each nonterminal node that has two children. The split process is terminated when the node has no children (when the number of measurement vectors is less than or equal to the size set by the SetBucketSize. That is The split process is a recursive process in nature and in implementation. This implementation doesn't support dynamic insert and delete operations for the tree. Instead, we can use the KdTreeGenerator or WeightedCentroidKdTreeGenerator to generate a static KdTree object.

To search k-nearest neighbor, call the Search method with the query point in a k-d space and the number of nearest neighbors. The GetSearchResult method returns a pointer to a NearestNeighbors object with k-nearest neighbors.

Recent API changes: The static const macro to get the length of a measurement vector, 'MeasurementVectorSize' has been removed to allow the length of a measurement vector to be specified at run time. Please use the function GetMeasurementVectorSize() instead.
