RegressionTubularityAC Plugin Fails

[lsqshr]

I was trying to use the RegressionTubularityAC ported in Bigneuron for automatic centreline detection on Ubuntu, since I like the paper and keen to see how it performs.

However the plugin .so file was not included in the released 3.2 version. The trained models and filters were included though.

When I tried to compile it I got the errors saying could not find -llbfgs and -lconfig++. It might be due to the .lai files attached with this plugin. I fixed by replacing the .lai files with the right .so files. Then I could compile the plugin without errors.

Both the training and testing failed silently with only a message The plugin fails to call [test]. Check your plugin code please. (This is shown normally when ITK fails within vaa3d due to unknown reason)

Has anyone successfully ever used this plugin with some work around?
