Purpose¶

The module StandardDeviation calculates the standard deviation or the variance of the neighborhood (defined by a kernel) of the input voxels.

Optionally a threshold interval can be used to select a subset of voxels of the input image to which the filtering is applied. Another threshold interval can be used to limit the set of voxels used in each filtering.

By using these intervals filtering can be applied selectively to regions in the image and the influence of certain objects to the filtering itself can be avoided by excluding the corresponding voxels from the kernel.

Visible Fields¶

Border Handling¶

name: borderHandling, type: Enum, default: PadSrcClamp, deprecated name: edgeMode¶

Defines the border handling mode.

See Border Handling in Kernel Operations for details.

Values:

Title	Name
No Pad	NoPad
Pad Src Fill	PadSrcFill
Pad Dst Fill	PadDstFill
Pad Dst Fill With Orig	PadDstFillWithOrig
Pad Src Undefined	PadSrcUndefined
Pad Dst Undefined	PadDstUndefined
Pad Src Clamp	PadSrcClamp

Fill Value¶

name: fillValue, type: Double, default: 0¶: Sets the fill value for certain Border Handling modes.

Calculate variance instead of deviation¶

name: calculateVariance, type: Bool, default: FALSE¶: If checked, the module calculates the variance instead of the standard deviation.

X¶

name: kernelX, type: Integer, default: 3, minimum: 1, maximum: 999¶: Sets the x-extent of the kernel.

Y¶

name: kernelY, type: Integer, default: 3, minimum: 1, maximum: 999¶: Sets the y-extent of the kernel.

Z¶

name: kernelZ, type: Integer, default: 1, minimum: 1, maximum: 999¶: Sets the z-extent of the kernel.

C¶

name: kernelC, type: Integer, default: 1, minimum: 1, maximum: 999¶: Sets the c-extent of the kernel.

T¶

name: kernelT, type: Integer, default: 1, minimum: 1, maximum: 999¶: Sets the t-extent of the kernel.

U¶

name: kernelU, type: Integer, default: 1, minimum: 1, maximum: 999¶: Sets the u-extent of the kernel.

Min (intervalMinOfFilteredVoxels)¶

name: intervalMinOfFilteredVoxels, type: Double, default: 0, deprecated name: ImageIntervalMin¶: Sets the minimum value threshold for outputting a subset of voxel.

Max (intervalMaxOfFilteredVoxels)¶

name: intervalMaxOfFilteredVoxels, type: Double, default: 1024, deprecated name: ImageIntervalMax¶: Sets the maximum value threshold for outputting a subset of voxel.

Use (useIntervalOfFilteredVoxels)¶

name: useIntervalOfFilteredVoxels, type: Bool, default: FALSE, deprecated name: UseImageInterval¶: If checked, the module outputs only on a subset of voxels defined by a value range.

Min (intervalMinOfVoxelsForFiltering)¶

name: intervalMinOfVoxelsForFiltering, type: Double, default: 0, deprecated name: KernelIntervalMin¶: Sets the minimum value threshold for operating on a subset of voxel.

Max (intervalMaxOfVoxelsForFiltering)¶

name: intervalMaxOfVoxelsForFiltering, type: Double, default: 1024, deprecated name: KernelIntervalMax¶: Sets the maximum value threshold for operating on a subset of voxel.

Use (useIntervalOfVoxelsForFiltering)¶

name: useIntervalOfVoxelsForFiltering, type: Bool, default: FALSE, deprecated name: UseKernelInterval¶: If checked, the module operates only on a subset of voxels defined by a value range.

Make kernel spherical¶

name: makeSpherical, type: Bool, default: FALSE¶: If checked, the used kernel is a spherical kernel, not a rectangular one.

External Kernel¶

name: externalKernel, type: String, deprecated name: kernelInput¶

Sets an external kernel as a string.

Use the module KernelEditor for editing the kernel or set the kernel by scripting.

Use (useExternalKernel)¶

name: useExternalKernel, type: Bool, default: FALSE¶: If checked, the optionally attached External Kernel is used.

Info¶

name: kernelInfo, type: String, persistent: no¶: Shows information about the used kernel.
