Detailed Description

An octree geometry.

The EGS_Octree class implements an octree geometry. An octree is a partitioning scheme for a 3D volume where cells are subdivided into 8 children cells (corresponding to the 8 octants making up the parent cell). Octrees are useful to partition space in multi-resolution fashion: portion of space requiring more details are further subdivided as needed.

This class partitions an existing geometry into an octree such that leaf nodes are maximally collapsed according to the medium index, that is, adjacent children nodes with the same medium index are collapsed into their parent node (which then becomes a leaf), as much as possible. This means that portions of the child geometry with a uniform medium are represented as large cells rather than many smaller voxels.

Note
The actual octree will usually spill out of the bounding box, because internally the number of cells must be the same along each axis and must be a power of 2. But the dimensions of the octree are adjusted such that the specified resolution will fit in the specified bounding box. Points outside the bounding box are considered to be outside the geometry. This means that some region numbers will be attributed to octree cells lying outside the bounding box, although in practice these region numbers will never be returned by the geometry.

An octree is defined as follows

library = egs_octree
:start octree box:
    box min = Px Py Pz
    box max = Px Py Pz
    resolution = Nx Ny Nz
:stop octree box:
child geometry = g_name
discard child = yes or no
prune tree = yes or no
Todo:
Instead of taking the medium index at the midpoint position of the cells when building the octree, take the mode of the medium indices at a number of locations (possibly random) inside the cell.
