[ITK-users] Help

Hi Matt,

Thanks for your reply. Yes indeed, all of the registration examples has this itk::Command class implemented and is used to print iteration number, metric value and the parameters at each iteration using
std::cout << optimizer->GetCurrentIteration() << "   ";
std::cout << optimizer->GetValue() << "   ";
std::cout << optimizer->GetCurrentPosition() << std::endl ;

Now I tried to find a method that gets the evaluation time from the optimizer as well, I used

optimizer->GetTimeStamp();
and
optimizer->GetMTime();

But both of them returned a fixed value of 942 which is independent from the evaluation time. Is there any other method that I can use to get the evaluation of each step from the optimizer?

Thank you for your time

Denis

Hi Denis,

An itk::Command class can be created to observe the IterationEvent [1].  Many of the registration examples have code that uses a Command to print out status at each iteration.

Hope this helps,
Matt

My exact problem is where to put the TimeProbe functions. So I tried to place the “clock.Start()” and “clock.Stop()” methods around “registration->Update()” as follows

itk::TimeProbe clock;
  try
    {
                  clock.Start();
    registration->Update();
                clock.Stop();
…

And in this case I got a total computation time for the registration process of about 6.8 seconds. Now given that there are 22 iterations until convergence for that particular case the average time per iteration would be 6.8/22= 0.31 seconds per iteration. Now I tried placing the “clock.Start()” and “clock.Stop()” inside the body of the “Execute()” function as suggested by  Guillaume and got numbers ranging between 0.004 to 0.007 per iteration so its much lower than the anticipated 0.31 sec per iteration. Please advise.

Thanks.

Denis

Hi,

The TimeProbe [1] and RealTimeClock [2] classes could be useful here.

Hi,
I am not 100% sure since that I didn't put the hand in the code but the function Execute() seems to be call at each iteration since that they show the parameter values. Maybe put a timer there.
Cheers,

Hello,

Based on Example: ImageRegistration6.cxx (or any other registration example) how can I get the elapsed time for the evaluation of each iteration step of the registration process?

Thanks

Denis
