Description : Python module which implements the fast marching method
Python module which implements the fast marching method.
The fast marching method is used to model the evolution of boundaries
and interfaces in a variety of application areas. More specifically,
the fast marching method is a numerical technique for finding
approximate solutions to boundary value problems of the Eikonal
equation:
F(x) | grad T(x) | = 1
Typically, such a problem describes the evolution of a closed curve as
a function of time T with speed F(x)>0 in the normal direction at a
point x on the curve. The speed function is specified, and the time at
which the contour crosses a point x is obtained by solving the
equation.
scikit-fmm is a simple module which provides functions to calculate
the signed distance and travel time to an interface described by the
zero contour of the input array phi.
Petter Reinholdtsen and I are collaborating on packaging this as it is a
build dependency for the openmotor package I am also working on.
