FireVoxel Build 295 is released.

1. FLEXR project : Implemented the Minimum Spanning Tree  for the part-based model derived from the set of Foerstner landmarks.
2.  FLEXR project :  implemented label optimization algorithm on the MST.
3. Added an interna "Current Working Directory" to UserInterfaceOptions, independent from TempDir.
4.  Corrected loading defect of COPD files (ANALYZE) from dir-lab
5. Implemented loading of the landmarks from COPD datasets.

6.  Implemented the Gaussian Radial Basis Function landmark matching (without regularization)
7. Integrated Eigen bsdSvd() procedure for substantial precision improvement.

8. Integrater GRBF into the general landmark workflow. Implemented FlowField reslice.
Tested GRBF on COPD1 dataset with 300 landmarks (Gauss RBF Sigma = 30 mm)

Exhale (Blue) over Inhale (Red)  BEFORE registration

Exhale (green) over Inhale (Red)  AFTER Registration.

Implemented Regularized variant of the GRBF deformation (large sigma = 100mm, lambda=1e-3)

AFTER (left)  vs  BEFORE (right)  same slice Z
9. Corrected DICOM loading defect due to a different internal encoding of the date and daytime inside the DCMTK data structure.

10.  Implemented Gradient Descent and Conjugate Gradient algorithms as a postprocessing for solving the system of Linear equations. Presently used after SVD so that it reduces the RMSE by x10.

11. Corrected defect of CT_BASIC concentration conversion not working in Dynamic Modelling.
12. Introduced an ABT subtest for TOFTS (Model8) on CT.

Build 294B is released.

1. Save Alignment Transform (to *.vtf) - corrected situation when FVX Temporary directory was changed.

2. Added a separate attribute "VTF_Folder" to User Options structure.

3.  Raster Paintbrush dialog:  rename "Parametric Maps" field into "Real Volumes"

2. Updated workflow for registering the Primate Atlas to the selected Monkey reference brain. Changes included:
    a) Using 0-component of the PCA (principal component) conversion of 4D volume.
    b) Using T2-layer as Anatomy for the label map.
    c) Label registration output is generated using Nearest Neighbor interpolation.
    d) Label map is clipped by the provided Atlas Brain Mask.

FireVoxel 294A is released.

1. Removed the Temporary Folder cleaning upon the FireVoxel exit.  Now User views the Temporary folder size in the User Options dialog box.  User has an option to clean Temporary folder with dedicated button.
