Hello, Is there any ITK filter that can provide information about the curvature of the lines in this image? For example from less curvature to greater curvature by associating this information with different colors? Thank you

I am not sure it there is a filter which can do it directly. But you should be able to segment these individual lines, compute their skeleton (medial axis), and then computing the curvature should be easy.
