Adapting the ITK Registration Framework to Fit Parametric Image Models.

ABSTRACT: The image registration framework in the Insight Tookit offers a powerful body of code for finding the optimal spatial transform that registers one image with another. However, ITK currently lacks a way to fit parametric models of image pixel values to an input image. Such a capability is necessary in certain applications such as sub-resolution localization of molecules in fluorescence microscopy. This document describes new classes that enable the use of the registration framework to provide this capability. We describe a new base class, itk::ParametricImageSource, that defines an interface for parametric image sources. An adapter class itk::ImageToParametricImageSourceMetric that enables itk::ParametricImageSources to be hooked into the registration framework is also described. An example
