``Segement_Generation'' -- improve skeletonization

 

purpose:
This routine accepts two input images, the skeleton and the original. the skelton is first rid of all one-point burrs. Line segments will then be generated for the skeleton. If the user requests a BAP analysis, the original image will be used as well. If the input images are high resolution images, then the upsample factor will be used to downsample the segments to be used with the original sized image. Finally, the routine will create either an integer of fractional .trc file (or both) per the user request.
input:
skelton image, original gray scale image (BAP only).
output:
.trc file(s)
parameters:
Default parameters menu is
segment fit by: [3]_squared_error
* input skeleton from vol # = 0
* Parameters below only for [2]-[4]
* output fractional .trc file also? no
* downsample factor: 1
* disk radius ([4]_BAP only): 1
* input image filename ([4]_BAP only): image
* output filename: trace
*
