Indirect Image Registration with Large Diffeomorphic Deformations
The paper adapts the large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping framework
for image registration to the indirect setting where a template is registered
against a target that is given through indirect noisy observations. The
registration uses diffeomorphisms that transform the template through a (group)
action. These diffeomorphisms are generated by solving a flow equation that is
defined by a velocity field with certain regularity. The theoretical analysis
includes a proof that indirect image registration has solutions (existence)
that are stable and that converge as the data error tends so zero, so it
becomes a well-defined regularization method. The paper concludes with examples
of indirect image registration in 2D tomography with very sparse and/or highly
noisy data.Comment: 43 pages, 4 figures, 1 table; revise
Mathematical Imaging and Surface Processing
Within the last decade image and geometry processing have become increasingly rigorous with solid foundations in mathematics. Both areas are research fields at the intersection of different mathematical disciplines, ranging from geometry and calculus of variations to PDE analysis and numerical analysis. The workshop brought together scientists from all these areas and a fruitful interplay took place. There was a lively exchange of ideas between geometry and image processing applications areas, characterized in a number of ways in this workshop. For example, optimal transport, first applied in computer vision is now used to define a distance measure between 3d shapes, spectral analysis as a tool in image processing can be applied in surface classification and matching, and so on. We have also seen the use of Riemannian geometry as a powerful tool to improve the analysis of multivalued images.
