Build 317 is released.
1. Fixed defect and provide x8 speed up for Voxel Context similarity measure.
2. Fixed defect while cloning the dynamic volumes. For some reason the DICOM header of the 0th timepoint was cloned over the rest. So now it uses all timepoint headers appropriately. This defect occurred while doing motion correction on the DTI 5-slice kidney mosaic.
3. Fixed the defect in KSFAPv2 procedure. This was due to an earlier upgrade of the Ridge detection function to REAL output.
4. DICOM Open dialog box: corrected selection behavior of the "Copy" and "Delete" buttons. Now the checked items are considered for the whole tree, not just the subtree of the selected item.
5. Removing redundant records during the DICOM tree construction: was slow on the large collectrons (32,000 files). Optimized and sped up from 16 sec to 2 sec and added the Progress indicator.
6. Modified the PR_SendMessageInterval so when (DoProgress==false) there is no action and unwanted hourglass would not appear
7. Remove the "Double Pass" option from the BiCal Research dialog.
8. FVX ParSVD : with Epsilon precision: change the Eps to be a relative to the norm of the Right Hand Vector.
9. Conjugate Gradients for Linear Equations: made corrections when NAND happens within the main iteration loop
10. Restored the AVX2-base Vector Dot Product function for about 20% speed-up in BiCal. It appears however that the AVX2 slightly looses precision
11. Argazi (Texture) Edge detector : fixed defects in determining the direction of the gradient vector. (defects were in the ORANGE structure initialization).
12. ARGAZI Image gradient: updated normalization based on the radius and vicinity weights so that the value of the gradient closely matches the derivative taken from the voxel values.
13. Introduce advanced BiCal variant BiCal# base on the Gradient detection only. This skips the Edge detection and Constrained Smoothing stage. Number of the UI parameters will be removed
14. Removed basic BiCal dialog. Old BiCal+ menu item and dialog where optimized and rename a new basic BiCal. New BiCal# menu item and dialog were introduced.
15. Complete new ABT: BiCal subtest including {Brain,Breast,Abdomen} and synthetic chessboard images overlaid with exp(k*X),exp(k*Y),exp(k*Z) fields for precise reconstruction.
