[Insight-developers] RE: [Insight-users] some contributions

[Blezek, Daniel J (Research)]

Oddly enough, I also have an implementation of the SPSA algorithm!  I offered to put Stefan's implementation in, provided he account for m_Scale and write a test.  I'll make the same offer for you, Mathieu.  I've put my code on the itk Wiki @ http://itk.org/Wiki/SPSAOptimizer  however, I haven't tested my code very well, as it's new.

I have also have some code for SPSA optimization. I found it quite
useful for rigid registration (it seems to be pretty robust). The source
code for a rigid registration application based on ITK is available on 

http://euterpe.tele.ucl.ac.be/Waleo2/vesale/

I would like to compare our implementations of this optimizer.

Regards,

Mathieu.
