[Insight-users] Re: ICP Iterative Closest Point

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Raghu,

ICP is implemented in ITK you will find
examples in

   Insight/Examples/Registration
       IterativeClosestPoint1.cxx
       IterativeClosestPoint2.cxx
       IterativeClosestPoint3.cxx

Please be more specific regarding your
statement about "proprietary" algorithm.

Did you mean that ICP has been patented ?
or that a version has been copyrighted ?

If ICP happens to be patented we will have to
remove it from ITK. Patented algorithms don't
satisfy the requirements of the ITK license.

About the Pelizzari algorithm, could you
please be more specific ?

Maybe point us to a publication ?


I found the following candidates:
