imagebary15B {T4transport}

Barycenter of Images according to Benamou et al. (2015)

Description

Using entropic regularization for Wasserstein barycenter computation, imagebary15B finds a barycentric image X^* given multiple images X_1,X_2,\ldots,X_N. Please note the followings; (1) we only take a matrix as an image so please make it grayscale if not, (2) all images should be of same size - no resizing is performed.

Usage

imagebary15B(images, p = 2, weights = NULL, lambda = NULL, ...)

Arguments

images

a length-N list of same-size image matrices of size (m\times n).

p

an exponent for the order of the distance (default: 2).

weights

a weight of each image; if NULL (default), uniform weight is set. Otherwise, it should be a length-N vector of nonnegative weights.

lambda

a regularization parameter; if NULL (default), a paper's suggestion would be taken, or it should be a nonnegative real number.

...

extra parameters including

abstol

stopping criterion for iterations (default: 1e-8).

init.image

an initial weight image (default: uniform weight).

maxiter

maximum number of iterations (default: 496).

nthread

number of threads for OpenMP run (default: 1).

print.progress

a logical to show current iteration (default: TRUE).

Value

an (m\times n) matrix of the barycentric image.
