  7. ITKv4 - Modularization ITKv3 – monolithic organization ITKv4 – modular organization

  8. ITKv4 – Level sets • ITKv3 provides several flavors of level sets • Implemented in a general finite difference framework • Each level set equation encapsulated in a separate filter • ITKv4 provides a more general framework • Level set equation can be constructed term by term • Advection terms • Propagation terms • Region terms • Regularization terms • Multi-material • Level set stopping criterions

  9. ITKv4 - Registration • Unbiased registration support • Composite transforms • Multithreaded metrics • New and updated metrics • Neighborhood correlation • Mutual information • Point set metrics • Tensor metrics • Vector metrics • New and update transforms • Displacement, Bspline, Poly-affine, Diffeomorphic • New optimizers • Efficient for high dimensional transforms • Automated parameter initialization

  10. ITKv4 - FEM • Broader FEM support (not just for registration) • ITK conformant • Memory and reference management improvements • SpatialObjects for IO • Removed other FEM IO mechanisms • FEMObject constructs problem instead of the solver More details at http://www.itk.org/Wiki/Refactoring_itk::FEM_framework_-_V4

  11. ITKv4 – GPU (SPIE release or v4.1) • Architecture for ITK filters to utilize GPUs • Lazy synchronization of data between CPU and GPU • Factory mechanism • Samples of various “classes” of algorithms • BinaryThreshold, Mean, DiscreteGaussian, AnisotropicDiffusion, DemonsRegistration CPU buffer CPU buffer CPU buffer Filter on CPU Filter on GPU Filter on GPU Filter on CPU GPU buffer GPU buffer GPU buffer

  12. ITKv4 - SimpleITK • On-ramp to ITK • Templateless layer for C++ • Function Paradigm, Object Paradigm • but no Pipeline Paradigm • Wrapping • Python, Java, C#, Tcl, Lua, Ruby, R • Access to most ITK algorithms • Simple image viewing
