In GoodFibes: Detection and Reconstruction of Muscle Fibers from diceCT Image Data

Smoothing of estimated fiber paths

Description

Applies splines to smooth the stepwise fiber paths produced by good.fibes, with the function ns from splines.

Usage

fibers.smoothed(fib.list, df)

Arguments

fib.list	A list of fibers with $fiber.points, produced by good.fibes or one of the cleaning and processing functions (e.g., fuse.fibers).
df	The degrees of freedom passed to splines2::nsp. Knots equal to df - 1 - intercept are set as breakpoints in the spline curve. A straight line path has a df of 1.

Value

fiber.points	The original fiber path from good.fibes
fiber.smoothed	The curved, smoothed fiber paths
