Relevant URL: Image registration is an important component for many medical image analysis
methods. It is a means to establish spatial correspondences within or across
subjects and a fundamental building block for example for atlas-building.
Most state-of-the art registration methods require the solution of an
optimization problem. This talk will discuss adjoint solution methods. It
will introduce the basic concepts with point-based toy examples. The talk
will subsequently illustrate how the same concepts allow for simple
formulations (and the expression of optimality conditions) of standard
fluid-flow image-registration, of the registration of image time series, of
registrations between images without perfect correspondence, and of
higher-order image registration models.
