Class MergeGraph

Object

MergeGraph

public class MergeGraph
extends Object

A graph that stores each object as a vertex, where edges represent a neighborhood relation.

It potentially allows merges between neighboring vertices.

Each vertex has a payload (double) value associated with it, that is a function of the object-mask.

Constructor Details

MergeGraph

public MergeGraph(PayloadCalculator payloadCalculator,
 UpdatableBeforeCondition beforeCondition,
 Optional<UnitConverter> unitConverter,
 AssignPriority prioritizer,
 Logger logger,
 boolean logPayload)

Constructor.

Parameters:

payloadCalculator - means to calculate a payload for any object

beforeCondition - condition to check before merging

unitConverter - converts units from voxels to physical measurements and vice-versa

prioritizer - means to assign priority to the merge of any two objects

logger - logger for outputting messages

logPayload - whether to include the payload in logging messages

Method Details

addObjectsToGraph

public List<ObjectVertex> addObjectsToGraph(ObjectCollection objects)
                                     throws OperationFailedException

Adds objects to the graph.

Parameters:

objects - the ObjectCollection to add

Returns:

a list of ObjectVertex objects created from the input objects

Throws:

OperationFailedException - if the operation fails

merge

public ObjectVertex merge(TypedEdge<ObjectVertex,PrioritisedVertex> bestImprovement)
                   throws OperationFailedException

Merges two vertices in the graph.

Parameters:

bestImprovement - the edge representing the best merge improvement

Returns:

the newly created merged ObjectVertex

Throws:

OperationFailedException - if the merge operation fails

findMaxPriority

public TypedEdge<ObjectVertex,PrioritisedVertex> findMaxPriority()

Finds the edge with the maximum priority for merging.

Returns:

the TypedEdge with the highest priority, or null if no valid edges exist

logGraphDescription

public void logGraphDescription()

Logs a description of the current graph state.

verticesAsObjects

public ObjectCollection verticesAsObjects()

Retrieves all vertices in the graph as an ObjectCollection.

Returns:

an ObjectCollection containing all objects in the graph
