Summer2009:Using ITK in python

• 

  Project Week Main Page

• 

  ITK provides body of algorithms in C++

• 

  Python provides interactive development environment.

Key Investigators

• GE: Jim Miller
• Isomics: Steve Pieper
• INRIA: Demian Wassermann

Objective

Develop strategies for embedding ITK filters in python code. See if this would be a workable strategy for creating slicer modules.

Approach, Plan

• Look at how numpy arrays are passed to C/C++ code using techniques like cython, weave, etc.
• Figure out what is needed to compile ITK code in these environments.
• Compare and contrast this approach to WrapITK

Progress

• Some pre-project week progress is described [
