<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">I have been attempting to use the MultiResolutionImageRegistrationMethod. As I understand it, the input images are blurred and then resampled to create smaller internal images on which the registration operates for the lower levels. I have set the number of levels and the starting shrink factors and by outputting the shrink factor at each level I have confirmed that it seems to be set up correctly (shrink factors are halved with each new level).<div>
<br></div><div>The program will run and produce correctly registered output, but each iteration takes just as long as it did before I implemented the image pyramid, when it was operating on full size images. Running smaller images through the pipeline leads to a dramatic increase in speed which made me think that the image pyramid in MultiResolutionImageRegistrationMethod would allow for the same speed increase, at least in the beginning levels. With the image pyramid there is no speed decrease as it proceeds through the pyramid levels, the first takes just as long as the last.</div>
<div><br></div><div>What could I have missed that would make the image pyramid just as slow as not having it implemented at all? Have I misunderstood something about the way it is implemented or is intended to be used?<div>
