Objective

We are investigating ways of accelerating the stochastic tractography code developed in python and part of the current version of Slicer 3.4.

Approach, Plan

Cython is used to develop a direct way of integrating native C code where python bytecode is too slow and hinders performance of the algorithm.

During the summer week, we will discuss improvements on the current implementation and possibly other approaches that could complement ours.
