Results of the Contouring Challenge

Experiment iv

This experiment compares the contouring performance of different types of contouring method, and a direct comparison of individual methods. The null hypothesis is that all contouring methods or types of method are equally accurate.

Experimental design and results will be reported in the publication below, currently in press (30 May 2012)
