NAME
mia-3ddistance-stats - Evaluate distance statistics for two labeled images.
SYNOPSIS
mia-3ddistance-stats -i <in-labels> -r <ref-labels> -o <out-file> [options]
DESCRIPTION
mia-3ddistance-stats This program is used to evaluate the distance between equally
labelled areas in two images. The output file is a csv file containing the distances for
each labeled coordinate in the test image in the following form:
label,n-samples,distance,distance,...
A simple R program to get some per label statistics from this data would look like
args <- commandArgs(TRUE)
data <- read.csv(args[1], header=FALSE)
for ( i in 1:dim(data)[1] ) {
line <- data[i,]
label <- as.integer(line[1])
end_range <- 2 + as.numeric(line[2])
s <- as.numeric(line[3:end_range])
result <- sprintf("%d %8.4f %8.4f %8.4f %8.4f0
label, mean(s), sqrt(var(s)), median(s), max(s))
cat(result)
}
OPTIONS
File-IO
-i --in-labels=(required, input); io
input label image
For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io
-r --ref-labels=(required, input); io
reference label image
For supported file types see PLUGINS:3dimage/io
-l --label-map=(input); string
optional mapping of label numbers
-o --out-file=(output, required); string
output file name to write the distances to. The output file is a csv file,
containing distances listed for each label.
Help & Info
-V --verbose=warning

Supported priorities starting at lowest level are:
trace ‐ Function call trace
debug ‐ Debug output
info ‐ Low level messages
message ‐ Normal messages
warning ‐ Warnings
fail ‐ Report test failures
error ‐ Report errors
fatal ‐ Report only fatal errors

Evaluate the distances for each label available in image.v to the corresponding labels in
the image reference.v ans store the result a coma separated list of values, i.e.
distances.csv.
mia-3ddistance-stats -i image.v -r reference.v -o distances.csv
