Detailed Description

template<class TImageType, class TFeatureImageType = TImageType>
class itk::CurvesLevelSetFunction< TImageType, TFeatureImageType >

This function is used in CurvesLevelSetImageFilter to segment structures in images based on user supplied edge potential map.

CurvesLevelSetFunction is a subclass of the generic LevelSetFunction.: It is useful for segmentations based on a user supplied edge potential map which has values close to zero in regions near edges (or high image gradient) and values close to one in regions with relatively constant intensity. Typically, the edge potential map is a function of the gradient, for example:

$g(I) = 1 / ( 1 + | (\nabla * G)(I)| )$

$g(I) = \exp^{-|(\nabla * G)(I)|}$

where $ I $ is image intensity and $(\nabla * G)$ is the derivative of Gaussian operator.

In this function both the propagation term $(\nabla * G)$ #248: and the curvature spatial modifier term $ $Z(\mathbf{x})$ are taken directly from the edge potential image. The edge potential image is set via the SetFeatureImage() method. An advection term $A(\mathbf{x})$ is constructed from the negative gradient of the edge potential image. This term behaves like a doublet attracting the contour to the edges.

This implementation is based on:: L. Lorigo, O. Faugeras, W.E.L. Grimson, R. Keriven, R. Kikinis, A. Nabavi, and C.-F. Westin, Curves: Curve evolution for vessel segmentation. Medical Image Analysis, 5:195-206, 2001.
