How To Migrate your code to the New Statistics Framework

Measurement Containers



Class Name Fate Deprecated API New API
Sample Refactored
  • Does not derives from Object anymore, now it derives from DataObject.
  • typedef for InstanceIdentifier was replaced from unsigned long to std::vector<MeasurementVectorType>::size_type
  • Size() method now returns InstanceIdentifier type, before it returned unsigned int, which was inconsistent with the declaration of InstanceIdentifier as unsigned long. The return type of Size() must be the same use for Id of the elements, since it may reach the same maximum number.
  • Removing unnecessary const in identifiers
    • GetMeasurementVector( const InstanceItentifier & id ) is now GetMeasurementVector( InstanceItentifier id )
    • GetFrequency( const InstanceItentifier & id ) is now GetFrequency( InstanceItentifier id )
    • SetMeasurementVectorSize( const MeasurementVectorSizeType s ) is now SetMeasurementVectorSize( MeasurementVectorSizeType s )
  • const-correctness is now enforced.
  • It now derives from DataObject
Subsample Refactored
  • The concept of Indices and InstanceIdentifiers was fixed. InstanceIdentifiers were previously referring to the original Sample, they are now referring to the current Subsample set of measurement vectors.
  • It now derives from its template argument. Before, it was deriving from an explicit itk::Statistics::Sample<> whose template argument MeasurementVector was taken as a trait from the Subsample template argument. The current derivation is more consistent with the notion that the Subsample should behave as the sample from which the instances are taken.
  • FrequencyType GetFrequencyByIndex(int index) const : was removed. This method becomes obsolete when the inconsistencies between index and identifier are removed.
  • InstanceIdentifier GetInstanceIdentifier(int index) const; was removed. This method becomes obsolete when the inconsistencies between index and identifier are removed.
  • Iterators
    • Common
      • GetInstanceIdentifier() now returns the integer distance to the Begin() element. Before it used to return the index of the instance in the real sample.
      • Iterator& operator+(int n) and Iterator& operator-(int n) were removed. The methods were not used, and they were not consistent with other containers. They were also unsafe, given that with Begin() and End() there is no way to verify if an iterator has moved before Begin() or after End() (unless we rely on being aware of the underlying pointer implementation of the Iterators, which would be a violation of the class encapsulation).
    • ConstIterator
      • removing Friendship to the Iterator
    • non-const Iterator
      • removing Friendship to the ConstIterator
  • The basic principle followed now in the design of the Subsample class is that the subsample should behave as a sample. That is, a user should be able to use a Subsample class in any algorithm that is expecting a Sample.
  • AddInstance( InsitanceIdentifier Id )
    • Now throws an exception if the Id is larger than the Size of the Sample.
    • Now it calls Modified()
  • Iterators
    • Now the non-const Iterator derives from the ConstIterator
ListSampleBase Deprecated. The class was unecessary, it was providing only a Search() method that should in fact be provided by a process class, not a data container.
  • If you were deriving a class from the itk::Statistics::ListSampleBase, you should now derive directly from the itk::Statistics::Sample class.
  • If you were using the Search() method you can get that functionality now from the itkStatisticsAlgorithm Search() algorithm.
ListSample Refactored The iterators API was updated, const-correctness is now enforced
MembershipSample Refactored
  • It does not derive from itk::Sample anymore, instead it derives from DataObject.
Histogram Refactored
VariableDimensionHistogram
KdTree Refactored

Frequency Containers

Class Name Fate Deprecated API New API
DenseFrequencyContainer
SparseFrequencyContainer

Process Objects

Class Name Fate Deprecated API New API
SampleClassifier
SampleClassifierWithMask

Traits

Class Name Fate Deprecated API New API
MeasurementVectorTraits Refactored (same name)
  • Added Assert() instantiations for comparing length of
    • FixedArray raw pointer, std::vector raw pointer
    • FixedArray reference, std::vector reference
  • Added Assign() method for generalizing the assignment of scalars and vector types
    • Assign() vectorType to vectorType
    • Assign() scalarType to FixedArray< scalarType, 1 >
  • Added trait MeasurementVectorType
    • to be used as MeasurementVectorPixelTraits< PixelType >::MeasurementVectorType
    • This trait generalizes the mechanism for creating a measurement vector using as component type the pixel type of an image
  • Added explicit testing up to 100% code coverage
