DREAM3D User Manual
Minimum Size Filter (All Phases)

Group (Subgroup)

Processing Filters (Cleanup)

Description

This filter removes Fields that have a total number of Cells below the minimum threshold defined by the user. Entering a number larger than the largest Field generates an error (since all Fields would be removed). The number of Cells in the largest Field is determined during the running of this filter. Hence, a choice of threshold should be carefully be chosen if it is not known how many Cells are in the largest Fields. After removing all the small Fields, the remaining Fields are isotropically coarsened to fill the gaps left by the small Fields.

Parameters

Name Type Description
Minimum Allowed Field Size Integer Number of Cells that must be present in the Field for it to remain in the sample

Required DataContainers

Voxel

Required Arrays

Type Default Name Description Comment Filters Known to Create Data
Cell GrainIds Ids (ints) that specify to which Field each Cell belongs. Values should be present from segmentation of experimental data or synthetic generation and cannot be determined by this filter. Not having these values will result in the filter to fail/not execute. Segment Fields (Misorientation, C-Axis Misorientation, Scalar) (Reconstruction), Read Dx File (IO), Read Ph File (IO), Pack Primary Phases (SyntheticBuilding), Insert Precipitate Phases (SyntheticBuilding), Establish Matrix Phase (SyntheticBuilding)

Created Arrays

Type Default Name Description Comment
Field Active Boolean value specifying if the Field is still in the sample (1 if the Field is in the sample and 0 if it is not) At the end of the filter, all Fields will be "Active" as the "Inactive" Fields will have been removed.
