.. BigFeta documentation master file, created by sphinx-quickstart on Mon May 20 10:03:21 2019. You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least contain the root `toctree` directive. Welcome to BigFeta's documentation! ===================================== BigFeta is a scalable linear least squares image stitching and alignment solver that can align millions of images via point correspondences. The solver runs on systems from individual workstations to distributed clusters. This solver was developed to provide the image alignment steps for :cite:`mouse`. The starting point for this package was the MATLAB-based package described in :cite:`KDS`. This solver is described in :cite:`thiswork`. Compared to that repository, this repository has a number of changes and additions: .. |pastix| replace:: PaStiX .. _pastix: https://gitlab.inria.fr/solverstack/pastix .. |petsc| replace:: PETSc .. _petsc: https://www.mcs.anl.gov/petsc/ +----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------+ | | :cite:`KDS` | this repo | +================+===========================+=================================+ | language | MATLAB | Python, | | | | C for | | | | external | +----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------+ | external solver| |pastix|_ | multiple, | | | | via |petsc|_ | +----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------+ | external solver| independent | included in | | installation | of repo | Singularity | | | | container | +----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------+ | transforms | - translation | - translation | | | - rigid approximation | - rigid via rotation transform | | | - affine | - affine | | | - polynomial to 3rd degree| - polynomial to arbitrary degree| | | | - thin plate spline | +----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------+ | automated tests| N/A | TravisCI | +----------------+---------------------------+---------------------------------+ .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 :caption: Contents: The User Guide -------------- Use cases and detailed explanations of input parameters. .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 user/intro API --- This contains the complete documentation of the api .. toctree:: :maxdepth: 2 api/bigfeta/modules distributed/distributed Indices and tables ================== * :ref:`genindex` * :ref:`modindex` * :ref:`search` References ========== .. bibliography:: refs.bib Acknowledgement of Government Sponsorship ========================================= Supported by the Intelligence Advanced Research Projects Activity (IARPA) via Department of Interior / Interior Business Center (DoI/IBC) contract number D16PC00004.
