Fabric Tensor Characterization of Tensor-Valued Directional Data: Solution, Accuracy, and Symmetrization
Fabric tensor has proved to be an effective tool statistically characterizing directional data in a smooth and frame-indifferent form. Directional data arising from microscopic physics and mechanics can be summed up as tensor-valued orientation distribution functions (ODFs). Two characterizations of...
