TEND-ANSCALE(1)

✨ TEND-ANSCALE(1) ✨

okay bestie, so you know how manpages are giving dusty PDF energy? not this one. this is the tend-anscale page, aka the little tool that makes your tensors dramatic 💅 it lives in the tend family, and it's here to serve looks — specifically, the anisotropic kind.

🌸 NAME 🌸

tend-anscale — scale the anisotropic component of the tensors 🦋

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

tend anscale -s <scale> [-fd] [-mp] [-i <nin>] [-o <nout>]

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Scale the anisotropic component of the tensors. 🫶

The way this works: it maintains the isotropic component of the tensor, and fixes either the trace or the determinant, while scaling up (or down) the “deviatoric” component of the tensor. no cap.

So basically it's for exaggerating the shape of nearly isotropic tensors. those little guys that are almost perfect spheres? yeah. this gives them main character energy ✨

👑 OPTIONS 👑

• -s <scale> — the amount by which to scale the deviatoric component of the tensor. it's a float, bestie, so decimals are welcome. (float) 🔥
• -fd — instead of fixing the per-sample trace (which is, like, the default vibe), fix the determinant (aka the ellipsoid volume). it's giving volume girlie 📐
• -mp — after changing the eigenvalues of the tensor, enforce their non-negative-ness. by default, no such constraint is imposed — so like, do with that what you will 🙈
• -i <nin> — input diffusion tensor volume. default: "-" 🍓
• -o <nout> — output image (floating point) (string). default: "-" 💜

fr fr, every flag above does exactly what it says and nothing more, so don't go inventing extra behaviour, bestie 💀

that's the whole page, angel. this came from the User Commands section, dated April 2021, and it's filed under TEND-ANSCALE(1) — slay, periodt. 💅🎀✨
