Detailed Description

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

This function is used in the ShapeDetectionLevelSetImageFilter to segment structures in an image based on a user supplied edge potential map.

IMPORTANT
The LevelSetFunction class contain additional information necessary to gain full understanding of how to use this function.
ShapeDetectionLevelSetFunction is a subclass of the generic LevelSetFunction. It is used to segment structures in an image based on a user supplied edge potential map $ g(I) $, 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 image 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.

The edge potential image is set via the SetFeatureImage() method.

In this function both the propagation term $ P(\mathbf{x}) $ and the curvature spatial modifier term $ Z(\mathbf{x}) $ are taken directly from the edge potential image such that:

\[ P(\mathbf{x}) = g(\mathbf{x}) \]

\[ Z(\mathbf{x}) = g(\mathbf{x}) \]

Note that there is no advection term in this function.

This implementation is based on: "Shape Modeling with Front Propagation: A Level Set Approach", R. Malladi, J. A. Sethian and B. C. Vermuri. IEEE Trans. on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, Vol 17, No. 2, pp 158-174, February 1995
