  Projects List

  OpenCL Implementation of GrowCut running in the Editor Module. (See demo video)

Key Investigators

• Isomics: Steve Pieper
• GI: Jim Miller

Objective

Provide a framework for Streered Segmentation in the Editor Module.

Approach, Plan

An example implementation of GrowCut has been implemented as a test.

During project week we would like to:

• Discuss the implementation with potential users and developers in order to generalize the approach and improve the interface.
• Discuss other algorithms suitable for this apuproach
• Possibly test this module on multiple CPU/GPU options to compare performance. (may be tricking since installation is not automated)
• Identify OpenCL/GPU programming experts to help evaluate and improve the implementation.

See the repository for more information: https://github.com/pieper/SlicerCL

(Note that use of this module requires installation of PyOpenCL into the slicer python build tree - see this example script. Also note that the current implementation depends on some changes to the Editor module that only exist in a threeDEditor branch.)
