Smooth Surface Quantity

This module smooths the values associated with each vertex of a mesh surface. For example, each vertex could have an associated thickness value. These thickness values will then be smoothed across the surface. Several different kernel smoothers are available to be used. Smoothing is performed repeatedly until convergence?

Input Types

You should be able to apply this algorithm to a 3D surface mesh having a measurement at each vertex.

Input Parameters

Method

The method of which the data is smoothed. The four methods available are Mean, Gaussian, Min and Max

The default value is 1.0.

Index Offset

<Insert description>

The default value is 0.

Maximum Iterations

Specifies the maximum number of iterations the algorithm will do.

The default value is 1000.

Convergence Criterion

Specifies the criteria at which the algorithm will stop. <describe criterion we are minimizing>

The default value is 0.01.

Use Log Space

Specifies whether or not to smooth the logarithm of the data.

Sigma

Specifies the width of smoothing kernel in voxels. Larger values increase the amount of smoothing.

The default value is 5.
