iterative PDF to ODF inversion

calcODFiterative solves the PF to ODF inversion problem by iteratively adjusting the kernel width, starting with a uniform ODF.

Iteratively adjusting the kernel width allows to model ODFs from highly irregularly sampled data, as missing information is modelled by assuming volume portions along tori (fibres) justified by a coarser model. This method basically provides an elaborated guess for starting values for PoleFigure.calcODF and may be seen as some form of regularization.

Syntax

odf = calcODFIterative(pf)
odf = calcODFIterative(pf,'halfwidth',5*degree)

Input

pf PoleFigure

Output

odf reconstructed SO3Fun
alpha scaling factors, calculated during reconstruction

Options

kernel the ansatz functions (default = de la Vallee Poussin)
halfwidth halfwidth of the ansatz functions (default = resolution)
resolution localization grid for the ansatz functions (default = resolution(pf))
thinning corresponds to zero range, will remove nodes with low volume portion (default = 0.025, i.e. 2.5 of uniform)

Flags

nothinning omit reduction of nodes
silent no output
