Source code for mdt.lib.sorting

"""This module contains some routines for sorting volumes and lists voxel-wise.

For example, in some applications it can be desired to sort volume fractions voxel-wise over an entire volume. This
module contains functions for creating sort index matrices (determining the sort order), sorting volumes and lists
and anti-sorting volumes (reversing the sort operation based on the sort index).

[docs]def sort_orientations(data_input, weight_names, extra_sortable_maps): """Sort the orientations of multi-direction models voxel-wise. This expects as input 3d/4d volumes. Do not use this with 2d arrays. This can be used to sort, for example, simulations of the BallStick_r3 model (with three Sticks). There is no voxel-wise order over Sticks since for the model they are all equal compartments. However, when using optimization or ARD with sample, there is order within the compartments since the ARD is commonly placed on the second and third Sticks meaning these Sticks and there corresponding orientations are compressed to zero if they are not supported. In that case, the Stick with the primary orientation of diffusion has to be the first. This method accepts as input results from (MDT) model fitting and is able to sort all the maps belonging to a given set of equal compartments per voxel. Example:: sort_orientations('./output/BallStick_r3', ['w_stick0.w', 'w_stick1.w', 'w_stick2.w'], [['Stick0.theta', 'Stick1.theta', 'Stick2.theta'], ['Stick0.phi', 'Stick1.phi', 'Stick2.phi'], ...]) Args: data_input (str or dict): either a directory or a dictionary containing the maps weight_names (iterable of str): The names of the maps we use for sorting all other maps. These will be sorted as well. extra_sortable_maps (iterable of iterable): the list of additional maps to sort. Every element in the given list should be another list with the names of the maps. The length of these second layer of lists should match the length of the ``weight_names``. Returns: dict: the sorted results in a new dictionary. This returns all input maps with some of them sorted.
