Given an object of class "tracklets" containing a list of tracklets and a custom function (or list of functions), this function iterate trough the tracklet lists to perform the specified computation and returns the original object of class "tracklets" with the result of the analysis appended.
Arguments
- trackDat
An object of class "tracklets" containing a list of tracklets and their characteristics classically used for further computations.
- customFunc
A function or a list of functions used to perform the computation over all tracklets NB: in case customFunc is a list of unnamed function it will try to retrieve their names by returning the first character string following the function() call as result column name.
- progress
A logical value (i.e., TRUE or FALSE) indicating whether a progress bar should be displayed to inform process progression (default = TRUE).
Value
this function returns an object of class "tracklets" with the result of the specified computation appended to each tracklet.
