FastGeodis: Fast Generalised Geodesic Distance Transform (2208.00001v2)

Published 26 Jul 2022 in cs.CV and eess.IV

Abstract: The FastGeodis package provides an efficient implementation for computing Geodesic and Euclidean distance transforms (or a mixture of both), targeting efficient utilisation of CPU and GPU hardware. In particular, it implements the paralellisable raster scan method from Criminisi et al. (2009), where elements in a row (2D) or plane (3D) can be computed with parallel threads. This package is able to handle 2D as well as 3D data, where it achieves up to a 20x speedup on a CPU and up to a 74x speedup on a GPU as compared to an existing open-source library (Wang, 2020) that uses a non-parallelisable single-thread CPU implementation. The performance speedups reported here were evaluated using 3D volume data on an Nvidia GeForce Titan X (12 GB) with a 6-Core Intel Xeon E5-1650 CPU. Further in-depth comparison of performance improvements are discussed in the FastGeodis documentation: https://fastgeodis.readthedocs.io
