ITK/Release 4/Enhancing Image Registration Framework

Enhancing Image Registration Framework

Goals

• Review v4 registration plans and progress.

• Catalog target use cases.

• Discuss design changes in core itk to support these enhancements.

• Wishlist items beyond standard use cases, e.g. projective transform (itkPerspective3DTransform).

• ITK_Release_4/Enhancing Image Registration Framework/Goals

Discussion Items

• Separate sampling (interpolation strategy) and metric computation

• Separate computation of derivative components via chain rule.

• Enable registration of generalized data-types.

• Multiple metrics and/or multiple optimizers?

• Add feature based registration techniques (SIFT (patented?), SURF, etc)

Refactoring of optimization framework

Notes:

(a) #3, #4, and #5 should be consulted during the actual refactoring of the registration framework. (b) #1, #2, and #3 should be involved with the design of a web-based parameter estimation, comparison.
