Non-linear Registration using a Finite Element Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
An automated method to register Medical Images is presented in this work. This new technique employs an iterative warping scheme and is performed, either over fully pixel information or using geometrical features such as ridges. The warp at each iteration is given by a number of local Finite Element transformations which provide a non-linear global warp. Results show that this technique can be applied satisfactorily to images with a severe level of distortions.

متن کاملModified Fixed Grid Finite Element Method in the Analysis of 2D Linear Elastic Problems
In this paper, a modification on the fixed grid finite element method is presented and used in the solution of 2D linear elastic problems. This method uses non-boundary-fitted meshes for the numerical solution of partial differential equations. Special techniques are required to apply boundary conditions on the intersection of domain boundaries and non-boundary-fitted elements. Hence, a new met...
