neighbourhoodInfo: Class representing a cuboidal neighbourhood in an image

Description

This class represents a cuboidal region of an image, with a centre and a fixed voxel width.

Usage

createNeighbourhoodInfo(width, dim = 3, centre = rep(0, dim))

Arguments

width
An integer voxel width. Must be odd.
dim
An integer giving the dimensionality of the neighbourhood. Currently must be 3.
centre
A numeric vector giving the centre voxel of the neighbourhood. Must have exactly dim elements.

Value

  • createNeighbourhoodInfo returns a list with class "neighbourhoodInfo" and elements
  • widthCopied from the width argument.
  • dimCopied from the dim argument.
  • centreCopied from the centre argument.
  • vectorsdim x width^dim matrix whose columns give the locations of each point in the neighbourhood.
  • innerProductsA square, symmetric matrix of inner products between every location in the neighbourhood and every other.
