High-Dimensional Normalized Mutual Information for Image Registration Using Random Lines
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mutual information has been successfully used as an effective similarity measure for multimodal image registration. However, a drawback of the standard mutual information-based computation is that the joint histogram is only calculated from the correspondence between individual voxels in the two images. In this paper, the normalized mutual information measure is extended to consider the correspondence between voxel blocks in multimodal rigid registration. The ambiguity and highdimensionality that appears when dealing with the voxel neighborhood is solved using uniformly distributed random lines and reducing the number of bins of the images. Experimental results show a significant improvement with respect to the standard normalized mutual information.

A Novel Subsampling Method for 3D Multimodality Medical Image Registration Based on Mutual Information
Mutual information (MI) is a widely used similarity metric for multimodality image registration. However, it involves an extremely high computational time especially when it is applied to volume images. Moreover, its robustness is affected by existence of local maxima. The multi-resolution pyramid approaches have been proposed to speed up the registration process and increase the accuracy of th...

We extend an information metric from intermodality (2-image) registration to multimodality (multiple-image) registration so that we can simultaneously register multiple images of different modalities. And we also provide the normalized version of the extensible information metric, which has better performance in high noise situations. Compared to mutual information which can even become negativ...

This study presents a new method based on the combination of cryptography and information hiding methods. Firstly, the image is encoded by the Double Random Phase Encoding (DRPE) technique. The real and imaginary parts of the encoded image are subsequently embedded into an enlarged normalized host image. DRPE demands two random phase mask keys to decode the decrypted image at the destination. T...

Information theoretical measures, such as entropy, mutual information, and various divergences, exhibit robust characteristics in image registration applications. However, the estimation of these quantities is computationally intensive in high dimensions. On the other hand, consistent estimation from pairwise distances of the sample points is possible, which suits random projection (RP) based l...
