Abstract

Image registration using Moving Least Squares (MLS) is a point based method and requires the selection of control points from the source and target images. The selected points need not necessarily be the corresponding points. These points have to be matched to identify the corresponding points between the two images. For this, a new structural method for control point matching method is proposed. For structural matching the control points are represented using a graph structure and the structural properties like the degree of the vertex, length of edges and the angle between edges are used for finding the corresponding points in the source image and the target image. This method is found to be efficient for both mono-modal and multi-modal image registrations, as the topological property represented by the control points are exploited instead of the traditional intensity feature. The accuracy of the registration is computed using the standard Target Registration Error (TRE) Measure and compared with the registration using Thin Plate Splines (TPS). This work also proposes a new approach for constructing image graphs called as Minimum-Radial Distance (MRD) method.
