ITK/Release 4/Refactor Numerical Libraries/Tcon 2011 08 24

Topics

• Inventory of Math needs for ITK
• Need for identifying or creating specific tests that can be used for benchmarking
• We should remove eispack from VXL
• We should remove linpack from VXL
• Before removing we should identify test that will be good for benchmarking before/after
  • Make sure that the tests have releavant sizes (vector size and or matrix size)
• Need for FFT libraries

Schedule

• ITKv4 Beta Release Sept 15th
• ITK Developers meeting Sept 27/28
  • Bethesda Maryland (NLM Site at NIH Campus)

Action Items

• Luis identify ITK test with realistic cases for Julie and Julien.
  • Example code for point x matrix multiplications
  • List the optimizers
  • Send an example of Image registration
  • Send en example of Eigen Analysis in Diffusion Tensors
  • Send example of FEM registration that illustrates the use of non-linear solvers
  • Send example of FFTW use in images
• Chuck
  • Replace eispack with functions from lapack
  • Replace linpack with functions from lapack
  • Replace lapack with lapacke
  • Coordinate with Julie
