euchar
Compute Euler Characteristic curves and surfaces of image and point data.
Installation
For the package to install correctly the prerequisites are
- a
C++
compiler. Windows users need to install a recent version of Visual Studio -
cmake
version >= 3.8 -
pybind11
version >= 2.2
It is recommended to install both cmake
and pybind11
via the conda
command,
which can be obtained by installing either Anaconda
or Miniconda.
With conda
installed run the following commands in a terminal window.
$ conda install -c anaconda cmake
$ conda install -c conda-forge pybind11
This module makes use of features provided by the following Python modules
- numpy
- matplotlib, used in the display module of the package
- scipy, used to obtain Delaunay triangulations of 2D and 3d finite point sets
- scikit-learn, for nearest neighbours algorithm to obtain an estimate of the inverse of the local density in a finite set of points
Documentation
The documentation for this project is available at https://gbeltramo.github.io/euchar/, where usage examples are provided for computing both Euler characteristic curves and Euler characteristic surfaces.
