At the moment it is mainly composed of a C++ library: Milena. This library features many tools to easily perform image processing tasks. Its main characteristic is its genericity: it allows to write an algorithm once and run it over many kinds of images (gray scale, color, 1D, 2D, 3D, ...). Olena is a project developed by the `EPITA Research and Development Laboratory (LRDE)`__ since 1997. We did numerous prototypes and throwaway experiments before settling into the kind of programming paradigm which is finally here. __ http://www.lrde.epita.fr We do our image processing research using this library, but most importantly we have gathered (and still do) generic programming expertise from the library development. Yet, Olena is an ongoing development project. Few algorithms or definitions may change in a near future. A list of potential changes is maintained here : http://olena.lrde.epita.fr/FeaturesSubjectToChange. Likewise, the documentation does not cover the whole project yet. In the `doc/' directory you will find the first draft of a reference manual. It includes a quick reference guide and a tutorial. This is a good start. In `milena/tools' and `milena/doc/examples' few sample programs are available. Most of them are already used to illustrate the tutorial. For the rest, we're afraid you will have to dig the code or e-mail us. Please direct any question or comments to <[email protected]>, or <[email protected]>. Olena also has a web page, located at <http://olena.lrde.epita.fr>. ----------------- Required Software ----------------- Here is a non-exhaustive list of required software required to build Olena successfully. * to compile the user examples: - a POSIX shell, like Bash - a decent C++ compiler, like GNU C++ - a `make' utility, like GNU `make' Optional: * to use various image types: - Magick++ (either provided by ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick) - libtiff - GDCM * To use graphical user interfaces with Scribo: - Qt * To recognize text with Scribo: - Tesseract ================== Quick Start Manual ================== This section summarizes the installation procedure. For more information about building and installing Olena, see the next sections. To install Olena on your system, create a `_build' directory (even though it is not mandatory) and type in the classical sequence at the command prompt:: mkdir _build cd _build ../configure make make install (as root) Note that an installation is specific to the compiler used to install it. Indeed, the call to ``../configure`` enables some workarounds and, consequently, users must compile with the same compiler to avoid compatibility problems. Between ``make`` and ``make install``, you may also want to run:: make check ``make check`` will run the test suite to check the whole library. Running the test suite may require up several hours. ===================== Detailed Instructions ===================== ------------- Configuration ------------- In order to prepare the build process, you need to configure the source tree. Assuming your Olena distribution is uncompressed in directory `olena-2.1', follow these steps: % cd olena-2.1 % mkdir _build % cd _build % ../configure The build process can be altered by a number of options you can pass to the `configure' script. The following sections describe them. Additionally, if you are an Olena maintainer (a person who runs `make distcheck'), _prefer setting `CXXFLAGS' as an environment variable_: the flags given on the command line to `configure' are not propagated to recursive runs by `make distcheck'. Or better: use the environment CONFIG_SITE to set up a configuration environment (see Autoconf's manual). Verbose Display =============== A more verbose display can be turned on by passing the `--enable-verbose' flag to configure: % ../configure --enable-verbose Before configuring files, configure will display a summary of the configuration step. Installation Path ================= By default, Olena is installed in the standard "local" directory of your system. This is usually `/usr/local' under Unix. You can change this path with the following flag: --prefix=<installation prefix> Compiler Selection and Compilation Flags ======================================== By default, `configure' will try to use the first C++ compiler it encounters on your system. If `CXX' is not set, it will look, in order, for: - the value of the `CXX' environment variable, - the GNU C++ compiler (`g++'), - the `c++' or `gpp' commands on your system, - `aCC', the HP-UX standard C++ compiler, - the `CC', `cxx', `cc++' or `cl' commands on your system, - KAI's C++ compiler (`KCC'), - `RCC', `xlC_r' or `xlC'. You can override the detection system by passing your favorite compiler name to `configure', as follows: % ../configure CXX=<your-favorite-C++-compiler> As an alternative, you can also set the environment variable `CXX'. For some compilers (GNU g++ and Intel's icpc to some extent) , `configure' will use default CXXFLAGS. You can override the default C++ flags by giving `configure' your selection of flags: % ../configure CXXFLAGS="<your-favorite-flags>" Additional Components ===================== In additional to Milena, several build targets can be enabled. These parts are called "components", and you can obtain a list of them by running: % ../configure --help Scribo ------ Scribo is an optional component of Olena providing Document Image Analysis tools and routines. It is based on Milena. To enable the installation of this module use:: ./configure --enable-scribo Swilena ------- Swilena is an optional component of Olena exposing Milena to other languages thanks to the Simplified Wrapper and Interface Generator (SWIG_). .. _SWIG: http://www.swig.org For the moment, only some Python_ bindings are provided. They are disabled by default because they require extra dependencies (SWIG and Python). .. _Python: http://www.python.org To enable the installation of this module use:: ./configure --enable-swilena Tools ----- Sample tools are shipped with the tarball. To enable the installation of these tools use:: ./configure --enable-tools Applications ------------ Sample applications are shipped with the tarball. To enable the installation of these applications use:: ./configure --enable-apps Input/output libraries ---------------------- To read/write TIFF images with Olena, libtiff is required. If ``configure`` is unable to find libtiff on your system, you can help it by specifying the base directory of libtiff, e.g.:: ./configure --with-tiff=/usr/local To read/write DICOM images with Olena, GDCM is required. Likewise, you can tell ``configure`` where to find it by giving its install prefix, e.g.:: ./configure --with-gdcm=/usr/local Olena uses the Magick++ API provided by ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick to read and write images in common formats. As for other optional dependencies, you can specify where such a package is located (if needed) at configuration time, using either:: ./configure --with-imagemagickxx=/usr/local/ or ./configure --with-graphicsmagickxx=/usr/local/ respectively. If ``configure`` finds both ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick in your system (either automatically or because you used one of the above flags), the former is chosen by default. If you want to select GraphicsMagick instead, tell configure explicitly that you do not want to use ImageMagick. For instance, in the case where configure is able to discover GraphicsMagick by itself, the following command line is enough:: ./configure --with-imagemagickxx=no Otherwise, it suffices to combine it with the option telling where GraphicsMagick is located:: ./configure --with-imagemagickxx=no --with-graphicsmagickxx=/usr/local Other libraries --------------- The Boost Tuple library is used to implement a tuple accumulator class. This project is a part of the Boost libraries; you can help configure find these libraries using the `--with-boost flag': ./configure --with-boost=/usr/local/ -------- Building -------- Once your build directory is `configure'd, you can run % make to recursively build all the selected components. Additionally, you can build and run the test suite with: % make check However, this process is time- and memory- consuming, and you probably do not need it except if you are developing/debugging Olena. ---------- Installing ---------- To install the Olena headers and additional files on your system, run: % make install from the build directory. If not overridden with `--prefix', this will install: * the headers in `/usr/local/include/mln/', * some applications and tools in `/usr/local/bin/', * sample images and meshes in `/usr/local/share/olena/images/', * the documentation in `/usr/local/share/doc/olena/` And optionally: * Swilena's Python bindings in `/usr/local/lib/python2.x/site-packages/', You can later remove Olena from your system by running % make uninstall from the build directory (if you have kept it). We recommend the use of GNU Stow (or any similar program) during the installation of Olena, to make the uninstallation of Olena easier. ===================== Layout of the Tarball ===================== The Olena project directory layout is as follows: build-aux Auxiliary tools used by the GNU Build System during ``configure`` and ``make`` stages. external Sources of Shipped dependencies. m4 Extra Autoconf macros. milena apps Application examples. mln Headers of the Milena library. tests The test suite. doc The documentation. tools Example tools. mesh Some 3D meshes, mostly used for test purpose. img Some (2D) images, mostly used for test purpose. demos Demos of Milena. scribo demo Full applications using Scribo DIA capabilities. scribo Headers of the Scribo framework. src Example tools. swilena python Some Python bindings for Milena. =================== Supported Platforms =================== Olena has been tested on the following configurations: =========================== ============================================= System Compiler =========================== ============================================= GNU/Linux on x86-64 g++ (GNU GCC) 4.7, 4.8 GNU/Linux on x86-64 clang++ (LLVM) 3.5 OS X (10.8) on Intel 64 g++ (GNU GCC) 4.8 OS X (10.8) on Intel 64 clang++ (Apple LLVM) 5.0 =========================== ============================================= According to the wanted features, some dependencies may be required: To enable I/O with TIFF images, `libtiff`_ must be installed. .. _libtiff: http://www.libtiff.org/ To enable I/O with GDCM images, `GDCM`_ must be installed. .. _GDCM: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/gdcm/ To support many image formats in Olena's I/O system, `Magick++`_ must be installed. .. _Magick++: http://www.imagemagick.org/Magick++/ The Boost Tuple Library from the `Boost`_ Project is needed if you want to support tuple accumulators. .. _Boost: http://www.boost.org/ Apart from GDCM, these dependencies are commonly provided by the package management systems (e.g., Debian's APT, Mac OS X's Mac Ports, etc.). We recommend using package managers instead of installing dependencies by hand.
