dpmixsim (version 0.0-9)

premask: Data preparation

Description

premask applies a pre-defined mask to a MRI slice in order to select regions of interest (ROIs) for processing

Usage

premask(slicedata, subsamp=TRUE)

Arguments

slicedata

list as output by read.sliceimg

subsamp

logical variable; if TRUE a downsampled image by a factor of 2 is used in the MCMC simulation, otherwise the full-sized image is taken. After parameter estimation, the full-sized image should be used for clustering and image segmentation. The use of downsampled images can substantially reduce runtime, with little quality degradation.

Value

xv

processed data vector

  x0 <- premask(slicedata, subsamp=TRUE)
  x  <- prescale(x0) 
  print(str(x))
# }
