Maybe ImageDataset? (ImagingDataset?) Otherwise it sounds like it
might be a database library.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 12pt;">I sent this to the
wrong list
earlier. Apologies if this is noise. I had proposed something simple
like
NumericDataset as an alternative.<o:p></o:p></p>

<br>
First of all, I do not like "grid" too much as it assumes uniformly
arranged<br>
data which is not necessarily true. Although it is right now to be fair
:)<br>
At the end it also not necessarily an image, it might as well be a DNA<br>
sequence for example. So if we try to be exact, we should rather name it<br>
something more generic like Collection, maybe something from<br>

Right now, I find "pool" appealing...<br>
<br>
Let's discuss it next week when Curtis is in Dresden...I am optimistic
we<br>
will find a solution!<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
why not use the term "grid"?<br>
