Hmm... I am confused how the algorithm should work. Can you give an
example (just a description)on how is the whole set of Feret diameters
calculated?
Cheers,
Gabriel
A naive approach (may be too naive?) is simply to rotate the particle at
given angles and then to use the width of the bounding box around the
rotated particule as the Feret diameter at that orientation. In Matrox
Imaging library, the default number of rotation angles is 6 (if my
memory is correct). I guess that a few tens of rotations would be more
accurate... but obviously much slower to calculate. Thus, a trade-off is
required.
