## Detailed Description

### template<unsigned int N, class DirectedTag>
class vigra::GridGraph< N, DirectedTag >

Define a grid graph in arbitrary dimensions.

A GridGraph connects each pixel to its direct or indirect neighbors. Direct neighbors are the adjacent point along the coordinate axes, whereas indirect neighbors include the diagonally adjacent points. Thus, direct neighbors correspond to the 4-neighborhood in 2D and the 6-neighborhood in 3D, whereas indirect neighbors correspond to the 8-neighborhood and 26-neighborhood respectively. The GridGraph class extends this scheme to arbitrary dimensions. While the dimension must be defined at compile time via the template parameter `N`, the desired neighborhood can be chosen at runtime in the GridGraph's constructor. The shape of the grid is also specified at runtime in terms of a suitable shape object.

Another choice to be made at compile time is whether the graph should be directed or undirected. This is defined via the `DirectedTag` template parameter which can take the values `directed_tag` or `undirected_tag` (default).

The main difficulty in a grid graph is to skip the missing neighbors of the pixels near the grid's border. For example, the upper left pixel in a 2D grid has only two direct neighbors instead of the usual four. The GridGraph class uses a precomputed set of internal look-up tables to efficiently determine the appropriate number and location of the existing neighbors. A key design decision to make this fast was to give up the requirement that edge IDs are contiguous integers (as in LEMON's implementation of a 2D grid graph, which became very complicated and slow by enforcing this requirement). Instead, edges are numbered as if all nodes (including nodes at the grid's border) had the same degree. Since edges crossing the border are not actually present in the graph, these IDs are missing, leading to gaps in the sequence of IDs.

For the sake of compatibility, the GridGraph class implements two popular graph APIs: the one defined by the boost::graph library and the one defined by the LEMON library. Their basic principles are very similar: The graph's nodes, edges and adjacency structure are accessed via a set of iterators, whereas additional properties (like node and edge weights) are provided via property maps that are indexed with suitable node or edge descriptor objects returned by the iterators.

Specifically, GridGraph implements the requirements of the following concepts of the boost::graph API: Graph, IncidenceGraph, BidirectionalGraph, AdjacencyGraph, VertexListGraph, EdgeListGraph, and AdjacencyMatrix. Likewise, it supports the concepts Graph and Digraph of the LEMON API. The property maps associated with a GridGraph support the boost concepts ReadablePropertyMap, WritablePropertyMap, ReadWritePropertyMap, and LvaluePropertyMap as well as the LEMON concepts ReadMap, WriteMap, ReadWriteMap, and ReferenceMap.

VIGRA's GridGraph class is designed such that multi-dimensional coordinates (i.e. `TinyVector<MultiArrayIndex>`) serve as descriptor objects, which means that normal `MultiArray`s or `MultiArrayView`s can serve as property maps in most situations. Thus, node properties like a foreground probability for foreground/background segmentation can simply be stored as normal images.

Since the boost::graph and LEMON APIs differ in how they call corresponding functionality (e.g., they use the terms `vertex` and `node` respectively in an exactly synonymous way), most GridGraph helper classes and functions are exposed under two different names. To implement your own algorithms, you can choose the API you like most. VIGRA adopts the convention that algorithms using the boost::graph API go into the namespace `vigra::boost_graph`, while those using the LEMON API are placed into the namespace `vigra::lemon_graph`. This helps to avoid name clashes when the two APIs happen to use the same name for different things. The documentation of the GridGraph members specifies which API the respective function or class belongs to. Please consult the documentation of these libraries for tutorial introductions and full reference of the respective APIs.

VIGRA adds an important new concept of its own: the back neighborhood and associated adjacency and edge iterators. The back neighborhood of a given vertex with ID `i` is the set of all neighbor vertices whose ID is smaller than `i`. This concept is useful if you work on the grid graph's vertices in scan order and want to access just those neighbors that have already been processed. Connected components labeling is a typical example of an algorithm that can take advantage of this possibility. In principle, a back neighborhood iterator could be implemented as a filter iterator that simply skips all neighbors with inappropriate IDs. However, in case of grid graphs it is more efficient to provide a special iterator for this purpose.

Usage:

#include <vigra/multi_gridgraph.hxx>
Namespace: vigra

At present, the GridGraph class is mainly used internally to implement image analysis functions for arbitrary dimensional arrays (e.g. detection of local extrema, connected components labeling, watersheds, SLIC superpixels). For example, a dimension-independent algorithm to detect local maxima using the LEMON API might look like this:

namespace vigra { namespace lemon_graph {
template <class Graph, class InputMap, class OutputMap>
void
localMaxima(Graph const & g,
InputMap const & src,
OutputMap & local_maxima,
typename OutputMap::value_type marker)
{
// define abreviations for the required iterators
typedef typename Graph::NodeIt graph_scanner;
typedef typename Graph::OutArcIt neighbor_iterator;
// iterate over all nodes (i.e. pixels)
for (graph_scanner node(g); node != INVALID; ++node)
{
// remember the value of the current node
typename InputMap::value_type current = src[*node];
// iterate over all neighbors of the current node
bool is_local_maximum = true;
for (neighbor_iterator arc(g, node); arc != INVALID; ++arc)
{
// if a neighbor has larger value, the center node is not a local maximum
if (current < src[g.target(*arc)])
is_local_maximum = false;
}
// mark the node when it is a local maximum
if (is_local_maximum)
local_maxima[*node] = marker;
}
}
}} // namespace vigra::lemon_graph

It should be noted that this algorithm will work for any LEMON-compatible graph class, not just our GridGraph. When implemented in terms of the boost::graph API, the same algorithm looks like this:

namespace vigra { namespace boost_graph {
template <class Graph, class InputMap, class OutputMap>
void
localMaxima(Graph const & g,
InputMap const & src,
OutputMap & local_maxima,
typename property_traits<OutputMap>::value_type marker)
{
// define abreviations and variables for the required iterators
typedef typename graph_traits<Graph>::vertex_iterator graph_scanner;
typedef typename graph_traits<Graph>::adjacency_iterator neighbor_iterator;
graph_scanner node, node_end;
neighbor_iterator arc, arc_end;
// iterate over all nodes (i.e. pixels)
tie(node, node_end) = vertices(g);
for (; node != node_end; ++node)
{
// remember the value of the current node
typename property_traits<InputMap>::value_type current = get(src, *node);
// iterate over all neighbors of the current node
bool is_local_maximum = true;
tie(arc, arc_end) = adjacent_vertices(*node, g);
for (;arc != arc_end; ++arc)
{
// if a neighbor has larger value, the center node is not a local maximum
if (current < get(src, *arc))
is_local_maximum = false;
}
// mark the node when it is a local maximum
if (is_local_maximum)
put(local_maxima, *node, marker);
}
}
}} // namespace vigra::boost_graph

It can be seen that the differences between the APIs are mainly syntactic (especially note that boost::graph users traits classes and free functions, whereas LEMON uses nested typedefs and member functions). Either of these algorithms can now serve as the backend of a local maxima detector for `MultiArrayViews`:

namespace vigra {
template <unsigned int N, class T1,
class T2>
void
localMaxima(MultiArrayView<N, T1> const & src,
MultiArrayView<N, T2> local_maxima,
T2 marker,
NeighborhoodType neighborhood = IndirectNeighborhood)
{
vigra_precondition(src.shape() == local_maxima.shape(),
"localMinMax(): shape mismatch between input and output.");
// create a grid graph with appropriate shape and desired neighborhood
GridGraph<N, undirected_tag> graph(src.shape(), neighborhood);
// forward the call to the graph-based algorithm, using
// the given MultiArrayViews as property maps
lemon_graph::localMaxima(graph, src, local_maxima, marker);
}
} // namespace vigra

A slightly enhanced version of this code is actually used to implement this functionality in VIGRA.

Examples:
  graph_agglomerative_clustering.cxx.
