Proposals:Integration with R Language

Background

This page hosts discussions on how to integrate functionalities of ITK with R language (http://www.r-project.org/)

A reference for this effort is the integration of R in the Titan package (based on VTK).

Suggested Implementation

Data Bridge

Making some ITK data structures visible from R by converting or adapting them to R vectors. And conversely, adapting R vectors into ITK data structures.

The candidate ITK classes are

• FixedArray (and derived classes)
  • Point
  • Vector
  • Index
  • Offset
  • CovariantVector
• VariableLenghtVector
• Containers
  • VectorContainer
  • MapContainer
• Image
  • PixelContainer
• STL Containers
  • std::list
  • std::queue
  • std::map
  • std::set
