Module Description

Create a checkerboard volume of two volumes. The output volume will show the two inputs alternating according to the user supplied checkerPattern. This filter is often used to compare the results of image registration. Note that the second input is resampled to the same origin, spacing and direction before it is composed with the first input. The scalar type of the output volume will be the same as the input image scalar type.

Usage

CheckerBoard [--returnparameterfile

             <std::string>]
             [--processinformationaddress
             <std::string>] [--xml] [--echo]
             [--checkerPattern
             <std::vector<int>>] [--] [--version]
             [-h] <std::string> <std::string>
             <std::string>


Where:

  --returnparameterfile <std::string>
    Filename in which to write simple return parameters (int, float,
    int-vector, etc.) as opposed to bulk return parameters (image,
    geometry, transform, measurement, table).
  --processinformationaddress <std::string>
    Address of a structure to store process information (progress, abort,
    etc.). (default: 0)
  --xml
    Produce xml description of command line arguments (default: 0)
  --echo
    Echo the command line arguments (default: 0)
  --checkerPattern <std::vector<int>>
    The pattern of input 1 and input 2 in the output image. The user can
    specify the number of checkers in each dimension. A checkerPattern of
    2,2,1 means that images will alternate in every other checker in the
    first two dimensions. The same pattern will be used in the 3rd
    dimension. (default: 2,2,2)
  --,  --ignore_rest
    Ignores the rest of the labeled arguments following this flag.
  --version
    Displays version information and exits.
  -h,  --help
    Displays usage information and exits.
  <std::string>
    (required)  First Input volume
  <std::string>
    (required)  Second Input volume
  <std::string>
    (required)  Output filtered
