       data.

SYNOPSIS

       mia-3dimagestatistics-in-mask -i <image> -m <mask> [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mia-3dimagestatistics-in-mask This program evaluates the statistics of an image  within  a
       masked  region  of the image. Possible outputs are a summary statistics and a histogram of
       the values.

OPTIONS

              -h --help
                     print this help

              -? --usage
                     print a short help

                 --version
                     print the version number and exit

   Parameters
                 --struct-name=undefined
                     Name of the structure the statistics are evaluated for

              -l --limit=20; uint in [20, inf)
                     Number of pixels the mask should at least contain.

              -b --bins=8; ulong in [4, inf)
                     number of histogram bins to be used

                 --hmin=0
                     lower  bound  for the histogram mapping. All values below this value will be
                     mapped into the lowest bin. If this parameter is equal or larger than  hmax,
                     the histogram range is evaluated automatically.

                 --hmax=0
                     hpper  bound  for  the histogram mapping. All values above this valuewill be
                     mapped into the highest bin. If this parameter  is  equal  or  smaller  than
                     hmin, the histogram range is evaluated automatically.

   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).
