align3dvec

Rotational and translational alignment of 3d models via vectorization

align3dvec <fixed input> <free input> <aligned output> [nseg=<n>] [thr=<threshold>] [qmap]

Parameters:


<fixed input>The volume to align to
<free input>The model to be aligned
<aligned output>The aligned output
[nseg=<n>]Number of segments to split models into
[thr=<threshold>]Threshold density for segmentation, default is 1
[qmap]This will output a 3D 'quality map' showing the match at all possible Euler angles

Usage:

Description

This program is still highly experimental. You can play with it, but don't expect too much.

This program will take one 3d model and optimally align it to another 'reference' model. It uses segment3d to 'vectorize' the 3D models, then aligns the resulting vectors. A sufficient number of vectors (nseg=) should be used to represent the major features of the model.
