[Insight-users] Curvature Filter

[brian avants]

Hi Dav

There  is a class hierarchy in ANTS  ( http://www.picsl.upenn.edu/ANTS/ )
that computes either mesh or image curvature using this method :
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.103.1296 ... I was
using these tools recently to test some clinical hypotheses and the results
were reasonable.  If you compile ANTS then you'll get an executable that can
be used as follows:

SurfaceCurvature    BrainIn.nii BrainOut.nii   3  0

where 0 means compute mean curvature and 3 is the sigma of a gaussian
derivative operator.

The classes are itk-compatible, as far as i know.
