dipy_denoise_nlmeans

Usage

dipy_denoise_nlmeans [-h] [–sigma float] [–patch_radius int] [–block_radius int] [–rician] [–out_dir str] [–out_denoised str] input_files

Workflow wrapping the nlmeans denoising method.

It applies nlmeans denoise on each file found by ‘globing’ input_files and saves the results in a directory specified by out_dir.

Positional Arguments

input_files Path to the input volumes. This path may contain wildcards to process multiple inputs at once.

Optional Arguments

-h, --help

show this help message and exit

--sigma float

Sigma parameter to pass to the nlmeans algorithm.

--patch_radius int

patch size is 2 x patch_radius + 1.

--block_radius int

block size is 2 x block_radius + 1.

--rician

If True the noise is estimated as Rician, otherwise Gaussian noise is assumed.

Output Arguments(Optional)

--out_dir str

Output directory. (default current directory)

--out_denoised str

Name of the resulting denoised volume.
