ITK/Release 4/Enhancing Image Registration Framework/Goals

Top Level Goals

• Composite Transform
• Deformation Field Transform
• Transform reorganization of parameters management
  • Transform parameter object
  • Support for very large number of parameters
  • Refactoring Jacobian computations
  • Optimizers refactoring (no longer holding parameters array)
  • Metric refactoring (new management of Transform parameters)
• Optimizer Refactoring
  • New Optimizers Family (not holding parameters themselves)
    • Optimizer base (new class)
      • Gradient descent optimizer
• Multi-Component Metric
• Demons Metric
• PointSet Metrics
• Multi-Threading Rewriting of Metrics
• Poly-Affine Transform (combination of Affine and Deformable)
  • Transform per region (plus interpolation in-between regions)
• Multi-Resolution
