Sysnopis:

mia-2dmyocard-ica {-i io} [ options ...]

Description:

This program is used to run a ICA on a series of myocardial perfusion images to create sythetic references that can be used for motion correction by image registration. If the aim is to run a full motion compensation then it is better to create a segmentation set and use mia-2dmyoica-nonrigid. If the input data is given by means of a segmentation set, then on can also use mia-2dmyocard-icaseries. This program is essentially used to test different options on how to run the ICA forreference image creation.

Options:

-i, --in-base=(input,required)

input file name ofolloing pattern nameXXXX.ext X=numbers. For supported file types see Plugin type: 2dimage/io

--coefs=STRING

output mixing coefficients to this file

-o, --out-base=ref

output file name base

-t, --type=exr

output file type

-k, --skip=2

skip images at beginning of series

-e, --end=60

last image in series

-C, --components=0

nr. of components, 0=estimate automatically

-m, --strip-mean

strip mean image from series

-f, --save-features=STRING

-x, --max-ica-iterations=0

max ICA solver iterations

-n, --ica-normalize

ica_normalize feature images

--all-features=STRING

Processing

--threads=-1

Maxiumum number of threads to use for processing,This number should be lower or equal to the number of logical processor cores in the machine. (-1: automatic estimation).

Example:

Evaluate the synthetic references from images imageXXXX.exr and save them to refXXXX.exr by using five independend components, mean stripping, normalizing, and skipping 2 images.

mia-2dmyocard-ica -i imageXXXX.exr -o ref -k 2 -C 5 -m -n
