A variational approach to non-rigid image registration with Bregman divergences and multiple features

作者:

Highlights:

• We propose to use Bregman divergences as similarity functions of the variational functional in image registration.

• Our formulation is a meta-algorithm that can be applied using any Bregman divergence associated to different features.

• Our new similarity measure generalizes the variational method, which of multiple image can combine image characteristics.

• Bregman divergences allows us to combine both local spatial and statistical information into the similarity measure.
