Installation

Installation from PyPi:

pip install eikonalfm

Manual install from the repository:

git clone https://github.com/kevinganster/eikonalfm.git
cd eikonalfm
pip install .

or

pip install git+https://github.com/kevinganster/eikonalfm.git

Examples

import numpy as np
import eikonalfm

c = np.ones((100, 100))
x_s = (0, 0)
dx = (1.0, 1.0)
order = 2

tau_fm = eikonalfm.fast_marching(c, x_s, dx, order)
tau1_ffm = eikonalfm.factored_fast_marching(c, x_s, dx, order)

Note that the source position x_s describes an index-vector.

To visualize the results, matplotlib (https://pypi.org/project/matplotlib/) can be used, for example:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# for the distance-function 'x_s' also describes an index-vector
tau0 = eikonalfm.distance(tau1_ffm.shape, dx, x_s, indexing="ij")
plt.contourf(tau0 * tau1_ffm)
plt.show()
