 +
 
 +
Attendees: Steve, Will, Dan, Nicole, Jim, Jeff
 +
 
 +
* Steve has started putting together a page for debugging command line modules
 +
* Nicole is having a problem with sending fiducials to command line modules when the fiducials are from a scene loaded from disk
 +
* Dan is proposing a macro recorder for running data through a series of command line modules interactively
 +
* How to test Slicer?  One dashboard? One dashboard for the base and separate for modules?
 +
** How to test interactive modules?
 +
*** VncRobot
 +
* OrientImageFilter bug
 +
* Tensor 9 to 6 conversion in ITK.  1 ITK test failing with changes to DoConvertBuffer
 +
 
 +
==2007-10-25==
 +
Agenda:
 +
 
 +
* Review of Training plans
 +
** Update: 3 audiences: clinical researchers (app-users), biomedical engineers (app-users and developers), algorithm researchers (developers)
 +
** Sonia has first pass user training for slicer3 (working with Katie making builds on all platforms compatible with tutorial.)
 +
** First developer tutorial in the work (command line modules, working with Jim to make sure binary distributions can be used as platforms for devel tutorial -- so trainees don't have to build all of slicer to do the tutorial.)
 +
** Sonia would like feedback from developers on the tutorial content. Would be good if we tested it.
 +
** First programming example "Hello World" : will describe how to implement an ITK filter, and testing it with CTest.
 +
** How will course materials be distributed? Dataset is currently on wiki. Sonia will keep us updated on where to look to find tutorial and data as it develops.
 +
 
 +
* Discussion of OSU experiments in fMRI preprocessing registration (Firdaus, Wendy, Steve, Raghu) [[Inter-slice_Motion_Correction_for_fMRI]]
 +
** challenge: correcting motion due to slice timing errors and motion between slice acquisition
 +
** comparing itk and spm's approach to affine registration, and finding problems with itk
 +
** images, 8-bit greyscale converted to float, EPI data (60 iterations, max 100)
 +
** discussion: how to make itk affine methods work?
 +
** Possibilities: parameters in metric are too strong; also need to set center of rotation for registration transforms;
 +
** Put src code into na-mic sandbox and a few slices for testing -- Luis will experiment to see if a good set of parameters can be found. May create a polynomial transform if necessary (such as is used in second stage of SPM's registration process).
 +
 
 +
* Other Registration Things:
 +
** need for Slicer registration filters to output and input (linear and b-spline) transforms
 +
** approach: either new plugins for Slicer, or modifying current filters to give the option for resampling data or returning the xform instead?
 +
** Jim will be working on adding the changes -- will probably implement a VTK b-spline xform that's based on ITK b-spline xform.
 +
** NIfTI has subcommittee on spatial transform file formats, Steve is part of this: may want to look at how NIfTI is going to store the formats and be compatible with that. Tenative plan: to have Slicer represent linear trnasforms and non-linear ones a little differently: linear transform will still have a matrix attribute, and non-linear transform will have a storage node attribute...
 +

 +
* Separating Slicer Base from Slicer Modules
 +
** follow up to [[Leadership:SlicerIGT_2007 | this discussion]]

 +
==2007-10-11==
 +
Agenda:
 +
* Jim updated the INSTALL_* CMake commands to the newer INSTALL() CMake command.
 +
* Slicer snapshot for BIRN will be Friday morning.

 +
==2007-10-04==
 +
Agenda:
 +
*http://www.doodle.ch/participation.html?pollId=a6pt4zn4wydey8kv - Dec 12-13-14 as candidate dates for Hands on Slicer/IGSTK/Opensource IGT Programming workshop. Is 1249 conference room available?
 +
*November 15 Slicer 3 Code Freeze. How is the notification being done - email and Slicer3 dev page?  Core 1 developers of plug-ins need to be notified of this as well as updated on how this code freeze impacts them.
 +
 
 +
Katie,Steve, Dan, Nicole, Tina, Wendy, Jim,
 +
 
 +
* Slicer3 code freeze will focus on the sections of Slicer3 code that Core 1 developers will rely to develop plug-ins
 +
** Jim will develop a UseSlicer.cmake to facilitate building plugins from a Slicer installation
 +
* NA-MIC Kit wiki pages
 +
** Will has started revamping the pages.
 +
** Needs to add BatchMake, Dart2, and CPack
 +
** NA-MIC Web page page should point to NA-MIC wiki sections?
 +
** How much of the content should transition over to Slicer.org?
 +
* ImageActor and picking
 +
** Steve rolled back the code that switched to using ImageActor.  ImageActors are not being processed correctly by CellPickers/PropPickers. Wendy needed the ImageActors rolled back to prepare the QueryAtlas for the fBIRN meeting.
 +
** Will will look at the ImageActor and picking issue and attemp to fix before the fall VTK release.
 +
** Another alternative is to write a vtkSlicerSliceOpenGLTexture class that incorporates some of the logic from ImageActor to avoid resampling textures to a power of 2 and simply reserve a power of 2 texture (if this is still a constraint) and use subtexture calls to load.
 +
*** Another benefit of this approach is that we could bypass the error emitted in LightBox mode when our image data is 3D and simply grab the first slice to download to the texture engine (or any particular slice).

Attendees: Jim, Steve, Ron, Tina, Wendy, Nicole, Katie

2007-11-01

Agenda:

  • Proposal for AHM 2008 Breakout session (Tue, Jan 8th 1-2pm): Geometry and Topology processing of Meshes by Alex G of Caltech:
    • 30 mn Prof. GU: Discrete Algorithms for Surface mesh processing
    • 05 mn Alex G : curent and future ITK Implementations (QuadEdge, Param., ..)
    • 05 mn Luca : curent and potential uses in his research
    • 20 mn : interactions

Attendees: Steve, Will, Dan, Nicole, Jim, Jeff

  • Steve has started putting together a page for debugging command line modules
  • Nicole is having a problem with sending fiducials to command line modules when the fiducials are from a scene loaded from disk
  • Dan is proposing a macro recorder for running data through a series of command line modules interactively
  • How to test Slicer? One dashboard? One dashboard for the base and separate for modules?
    • How to test interactive modules?
      • VncRobot
  • OrientImageFilter bug
  • Tensor 9 to 6 conversion in ITK. 1 ITK test failing with changes to DoConvertBuffer

2007-10-25

Agenda:

  • Review of Training plans
    • Update: 3 audiences: clinical researchers (app-users), biomedical engineers (app-users and developers), algorithm researchers (developers)
    • Sonia has first pass user training for slicer3 (working with Katie making builds on all platforms compatible with tutorial.)
    • First developer tutorial in the work (command line modules, working with Jim to make sure binary distributions can be used as platforms for devel tutorial -- so trainees don't have to build all of slicer to do the tutorial.)
    • Sonia would like feedback from developers on the tutorial content. Would be good if we tested it.
    • First programming example "Hello World" : will describe how to implement an ITK filter, and testing it with CTest.
    • How will course materials be distributed? Dataset is currently on wiki. Sonia will keep us updated on where to look to find tutorial and data as it develops.
  • Discussion of OSU experiments in fMRI preprocessing registration (Firdaus, Wendy, Steve, Raghu) Inter-slice_Motion_Correction_for_fMRI
    • challenge: correcting motion due to slice timing errors and motion between slice acquisition
    • comparing itk and spm's approach to affine registration, and finding problems with itk
    • images, 8-bit greyscale converted to float, EPI data (60 iterations, max 100)
    • discussion: how to make itk affine methods work?
    • Possibilities: parameters in metric are too strong; also need to set center of rotation for registration transforms;
    • Put src code into na-mic sandbox and a few slices for testing -- Luis will experiment to see if a good set of parameters can be found. May create a polynomial transform if necessary (such as is used in second stage of SPM's registration process).
  • Other Registration Things:
    • need for Slicer registration filters to output and input (linear and b-spline) transforms
    • approach: either new plugins for Slicer, or modifying current filters to give the option for resampling data or returning the xform instead?
    • Jim will be working on adding the changes -- will probably implement a VTK b-spline xform that's based on ITK b-spline xform.
    • NIfTI has subcommittee on spatial transform file formats, Steve is part of this: may want to look at how NIfTI is going to store the formats and be compatible with that. Tenative plan: to have Slicer represent linear trnasforms and non-linear ones a little differently: linear transform will still have a matrix attribute, and non-linear transform will have a storage node attribute...
  • Atendees: Dan, Jim, Tina, Steve, Sonia, Katie, Firdaus, Wendy, Vince, Luis

2007-10-18

Agenda:

  • Separating Slicer Base from Slicer Modules
    • follow up to this discussion
    • dynamic linking of internal modules (similar to the way command line modules are loaded)
    • extensions repository (NITRC projects)

2007-10-11

Agenda:

  • Jim updated the INSTALL_* CMake commands to the newer INSTALL() CMake command.
  • Slicer snapshot for BIRN will be Friday morning.

Attendees: Jim, Wendy, Nicole, Katie, Dan

2007-10-04

Agenda:

  • http://www.doodle.ch/participation.html?pollId=a6pt4zn4wydey8kv - Dec 12-13-14 as candidate dates for Hands on Slicer/IGSTK/Opensource IGT Programming workshop. Is 1249 conference room available?
  • November 15 Slicer 3 Code Freeze. How is the notification being done - email and Slicer3 dev page? Core 1 developers of plug-ins need to be notified of this as well as updated on how this code freeze impacts them.

Katie,Steve, Dan, Nicole, Tina, Wendy, Jim,

  • Slicer3 code freeze will focus on the sections of Slicer3 code that Core 1 developers will rely to develop plug-ins
    • Jim will develop a UseSlicer.cmake to facilitate building plugins from a Slicer installation
  • NA-MIC Kit wiki pages
    • Will has started revamping the pages.
    • Needs to add BatchMake, Dart2, and CPack
    • NA-MIC Web page page should point to NA-MIC wiki sections?
    • How much of the content should transition over to Slicer.org?
  • ImageActor and picking
    • Steve rolled back the code that switched to using ImageActor. ImageActors are not being processed correctly by CellPickers/PropPickers. Wendy needed the ImageActors rolled back to prepare the QueryAtlas for the fBIRN meeting.
    • Will will look at the ImageActor and picking issue and attemp to fix before the fall VTK release.
    • Another alternative is to write a vtkSlicerSliceOpenGLTexture class that incorporates some of the logic from ImageActor to avoid resampling textures to a power of 2 and simply reserve a power of 2 texture (if this is still a constraint) and use subtexture calls to load.
      • Another benefit of this approach is that we could bypass the error emitted in LightBox mode when our image data is 3D and simply grab the first slice to download to the texture engine (or any particular slice).

2007-09-27

    • Notes: Marek has conflict on 3/22 and will attend 3/29 tcon.
    • reminder that he would like your pages to be updated in March. Example of an updated page is: http://www.na-mic.org/Wiki/index.php/DBP2:MIND
    • introducing you to your namic engineering contact points and the role they will be playing. (we expect to introduce you to your namic algorithms core contact points at a later point as well).
    • summer project week at MIT (June 25-29). Ron's expectation is that by then (1) you will have identified a problem that can be solved with the na-mic kit in a 6-month timeframe and the results for which you will use in your work, (2) you will send an engineer and data to this project week, and the engineer will be able to articulate to the larger group what the problem is, and use that week to work on it with the na-mic team.

Jim has notes and attendees to add.

2007-03-15

Agenda:

  • Heads up: 2007 Progress Report. Recommendations needed from Ron on section/theme leads.
  • Dissemination and Outreach for the rest of us (Will, Tina)
  • DBP2 Points of Contact (DBP, Engineering, Algorithm). Need contact information for DBP2s. Algorithm contact points still need to be added. (Update: email sent to Ross 3/1 and 3/15 with request to provide names in march.)
  • Performance analysis tools and strategies: ITK_Registration_Optimization, Slicer3:Performance_Analysis (Steve Pieper, Sebastian Barre, Stephen Aylward, Katie Hayes)
  • Slicer release schedule (Steve)
  • Question from Douglas Alan: At the January NA-MIC All Hands meeting in SLC, Mike Halle and I met with Bill Lorensen and Jim Miller to discuss how in Slicer we might pass a FITS world coordinate system transform (and its inverse) from an ITK FITS image reader to the resulting Slicer VTK image so that Slicer can then be enhanced to use the transform to properly display the world coordinates. The proposed solution was for me to define a subclass of itk::Transform (i.e., FITSWCSTransform) that would handle the WCS transform, and once I had completed this (which I have) for me to then modify my FITSImageIO reader so as to include a pointer to a FITSWCSTransform object in the FITSImageIO's MetaDataDictionary. As it turns out, there seems to be a snafu with this plan: the MetaDataDictionary of an ITK image appears to be stripped from the image whenever it passes through an ITK filter. Or so it is the case, at least, for the filters that I have tried. Any ideas on how we should proceed, in light of this?

Notes:

Attendees: Jim, Steve, Will, Katie, Nicole, Raymundo, Stephen, Sebastien, Wendy, Tina, Jeff

  • Schedule for the progress report in on the wiki. Last year's report is also available. Assignments are imminent.
  • Need to update the NA-MIC web presence. Wiki to web will be used to author and publish the content. Ron will set the vision for the web presence statement (DBP focus? Theme focus? Core focus?). Everyone is responsible ensuring all NA-MIC activities and contributions are advertised.
  • Tina will get the contact info for the DBP2's
  • Stephen is pulling together a test application to run across systems to evaluate registration performance.
    • Note that only one optimizer is relevent to B-Spline registration (LBFGS-B?)
    • Torsten has a hierarchical B-Spline algorithm that Killian uses as the yardstick.
    • Brad developing proposal to evaluate EM pipeline soup-to-nuts for sources of errors.
  • Steve and Katie looking at Callgrind and Callgrind Control to track the overhead of observers and potentially the over-calling of callbacks.
  • Tracker performance okay but the images update slowly
  • Slicer3 release at the end of March
    • DTI tools availability gated by MICCAI deadline
    • Launchers work with getbuildtest but may have impacted CPack installations.
    • ModelMaker needs MRML read/write (Jim!)
    • Filebrowser will be available
    • Any features to suppress?
    • Any additional documentation needed?
  • Slicer 2.7 release at the end of March
    • Mostly bug fixes but a few new features
  • Jim will talk to Mike about the FITS needs for the MetaDataDictionary and the pipeline.

2007-03-08

Agenda:

  • Question from Steve: best way to handle "neurological" analyze files (where right-is-right unlike radiological files where "left -is-right"). The oaisis brains data collection from mBIRN stores their data this way and the ITK IO factory doesn't have a way to know which kind of file these are.
  • Python in Slicer - project overview: Dan
  • Google Summer of Code - are there any project takers?

Notes:

  • Update - it turns out oasis-brains.org analyze files are stored in radiological convention but displayed in neurological convention, so everything is as 'correct' as it can be for this file format. But the ambiguity remains about the real meaning of analyze files, so in the future oasis will supply nifti formated files.

2007-03-01

Agenda:

  • Adding Engr+Algorithms core representatives to each DBP-II team: DBP2:MIND
  • Google Summer of Code
