2017-02-28: DMRITool now uses C++11

• We use C++11 in DMRITool now.
  • NDArray now is more efficient with C++11.
  • The codes have to be built with gcc (>= 4.8), ITK (>= 4.9). Please check the building instruction.
• Some algorithms and demos on sampling scheme design are released.
  • Please check the updated tutorial on sampling scheme design.
  • 1-Opt: SamplingSchemeQSpace1OptEstimation, a new greedy algorithm which refines a given initialization. It can fix a known issue of IMOC when the number of samples is large. See the tutorial.
  • CNLO: OptimalSamplingSingleShellCNLO for single-shell scheme design.
  • CNLO: OptimalSamplingMultiShellCNLO for multiple-shell scheme design.
  • jointly use IMOC + 1-Opt + CNLO for sampling scheme design:
    • demo for single shell scheme
    • demo for multiple shell scheme

2015-06-18: Some codes on sampling scheme design are released

• Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) for sampling scheme design is released in matlab. See folder ${DMRITOOL_SOURCE_DIR}/Matlab.
• Iterative Maximum Overlap Construction (IMOC) for sampling scheme design is released in C++. See command SamplingSchemeQSpaceIMOCEstimation.
• Add a tutorial on sampling scheme design with some demos.
• Use some scripts to generate the c++ executable list, matlab function list, run demos in tutorials, update dmritool website and doxygen.
• Add VTKPolyData.py to visualize vtk files and save the visualization into png files. It can replace vtkviewer.

2015-06-09: DMRITool is using github pages

• The homepage of DMRITool is moving from readthedocs to github pages,
• Using gh-pages, it is possible to automatically generate some documents, for example, the list of commands.
• As required by a user, ComputeSHCoefficientsOfDWIFromSymmetricTensor is added to compute a fiber response function from a given symmetric tensor.
• Some tips using paraview is added based on the discussion

2015-03-09: Version 0.1.1 is released

The version v0.1.1 is released. It is mainly a bug-fix release to make the building process better.

• We now use the dmritool-discussion mailing list by nitrc.
• The doxygen documentation can be found in the github page.

2015-02-18: DMRITool is now open source

DMRITool is released as an open source toolbox. The source code is in github and the documentation is in readthedocs.

The fist release (v0.1) includes:

• Spherical Polar Fourier Imaging. See the SPFI tutorial.
• DWI simulation. See the DWI data simulation tutotial.
• Visualization of spherical function fields.
