💖 convert_warp(1) 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because we're talking about convert_warp from the Computational Morphometry Toolkit, and honestly? she's a little niche legend and you're gonna love her.

✨ NAME ✨

convert_warp — converts nonrigid transformations, periodt 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

convert_warp InputPath OutputPath

that's it. two paths, one glow-up. iconic.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so basically, this tool takes your nonrigid B-spline free-format deformation coordinate transformations and converts them between different representations (think absolute vectors vs. relative vectors, the whole vibe shift). it also creates fractional transformations, which we'll get into, don't worry 🫶

👑 OPTIONS 👑

🌈 Global Toolkit Options 🌈

(these are shared by all CMTK tools — the whole friend group, not just this one 💖)

  • --help — writes the list of basic command line options to standard output. your starter pack ✨
  • --help-all — writes the complete list of basic and advanced command line options to standard output. the full lore drop 📚
  • --wiki — writes the list of command line options to standard output in MediaWiki markup. for the wiki girlies 🎀
  • --man — writes man page source in 'nroff' markup to standard output. yes, she can describe herself. main character energy fr fr
  • --version — writes toolkit version to standard output. tell me who you are, queen 👑
  • --echo — writes the current command line to standard output. like a mirror but for your terminal 🪞
  • --verbose-level <integer> — sets the verbosity level. pick your volume 🔥
  • --verbose, -v — increments verbosity level by 1 (deprecated; supported for backward compatibility). lowkey a legacy queen but she still shows up 💀
  • --threads <integer> — sets the maximum number of parallel threads (for POSIX threads and OpenMP). so many little workers, all doing the most ⚡

💜 Main Options 💜

  • --fractional <float>, -f <float> — write fractional deformation. Range: 0=affine to 1=full nonrigid; Default: 1 [Default: -1]. so like, 0 is giving fully affine, 1 is giving fully nonrigid, and everything in between is a spectrum moment 🌈
  • --deformation-only, -d — writes only the deformation part of the transformation (minus the global affine component). stripping it back to the essentials, no extra ✂️
