Title
Manifold learning based registration algorithms applied to multimodal images.
Abstract
Manifold learning algorithms are proposed to be used in image processing based on their ability in preserving data structures while reducing the dimension and the exposure of data structure in lower dimension. Multi-modal images have the same structure and can be registered together as monomodal images if only structural information is shown. As a result, manifold learning is able to transform multi-modal images to mono-modal ones and subsequently do the registration using mono-modal methods. Based on this application, in this paper novel similarity measures are proposed for multi-modal images in which Laplacian eigenmaps are employed as manifold learning algorithm and are tested against rigid registration of PET/MR images. Results show the feasibility of using manifold learning as a way of calculating the similarity between multimodal images.
