ITK and libminc internal compression? #69

Closed gdevenyi closed 8 years ago

gdevenyi commented 8 years ago

I've found that using the ITK MINC tools (such as using ANTs built with MINC support) produce far larger files than using native MINC tools. Presumably this is because of compression, as if I use mincconvert to compress the files, they get very small.

Is there a way to convince the ITK tools to use MINC's internal compression?

Just following up here, wondering if this support exists?

It does: https://github.com/BIC-MNI/EZminc/blob/ITK4/tools/itk_resample.cpp#L497 also , to store floating point values into shorts or bytes with slice normalization: https://github.com/BIC-MNI/EZminc/blob/ITK4/tools/itk_resample.cpp#L505

Thanks for the help here, I've implemented compression in ANTs image writer bits here https://github.com/stnava/ANTs/pull/305
