Discussion:
[ITK-users] Conductance parameter on CurvatureAnisotropicDiffusion Filtering

Hello everyone,

I am using the algorithm for Curvature Anisotropic Diffusion where it uses
the algorithm from Whitaker MCDE. As it is also mentioned on the User's
guide the conductance modified curvature term is the divergence of the
normalized gradient. (I also had a look on the original paper) So, as far as
I understand the conductance, which is the curvature of the level set, is
defined by the level set function and therefore the image. Then why do we
have to set the value of the parameter in order to run the example?
Please forgive me if I understood something wrong.
Looking forward for your answers!

Best regards,
Thanos

Hello Thanos,

The Conductance parameter is a global scalar that controls the
sensitivity to the conductance term in the level set evolution
equation. For more information, see the Doxygen pages:

- https://itk.org/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1AnisotropicDiffusionFunction.html

- https://itk.org/Insight/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1AnisotropicDiffusionImageFilter.html#a14a5b3acabcd97c07645750bb735e251

Hope this helps,
Matt
