Detailed Description

template<class TFixedImage, class TMovingImage>
class itk::MutualInformationImageToImageMetric< TFixedImage, TMovingImage >

Computes the mutual information between two images to be registered.

MutualInformationImageToImageMetric computes the mutual information between a fixed and moving image to be registered.

This class is templated over the FixedImage type and the MovingImage type.

The fixed and moving images are set via methods SetFixedImage() and SetMovingImage(). This metric makes use of user specified Transform and Interpolator. The Transform is used to map points from the fixed image to the moving image domain. The Interpolator is used to evaluate the image intensity at user specified geometric points in the moving image. The Transform and Interpolator are set via methods SetTransform() and SetInterpolator().

Warning:
This metric assumes that the moving image has already been connected to the interpolator outside of this class.
The method GetValue() computes of the mutual information while method GetValueAndDerivative() computes both the mutual information and its derivatives with respect to the transform parameters.

The calculations are based on the method of Viola and Wells where the probability density distributions are estimated using Parzen windows.

By default a Gaussian kernel is used in the density estimation. Other option include Cauchy and spline-based. A user can specify the kernel passing in a pointer a KernelFunction using the SetKernelFunction() method.

Mutual information is estimated using two sample sets: one to calculate the singular and joint pdf's and one to calculate the entropy integral. By default 50 samples points are used in each set. Other values can be set via the SetNumberOfSpatialSamples() method.

Quality of the density estimate depends on the choice of the kernel's standard deviation. Optimal choice will depend on the images. It is can be shown that around the optimal variance, the mutual information estimate is relatively insensitive to small changes of the standard deviation. In our experiments, we have found that a standard deviation of 0.4 works well for images normalized to have a mean of zero and standard deviation of 1.0. The variance can be set via methods SetFixedImageStandardDeviation() and SetMovingImageStandardDeviation().

Implementaton of this class is based on: Viola, P. and Wells III, W. (1997). "Alignment by Maximization of Mutual Information" International Journal of Computer Vision, 24(2):137-154

unsigned long itk::Object::AddObserver ( const EventObject &  event,

unsigned long itk::Object::AddObserver ( const EventObject &  event,
Command *   
) [inherited]

Allow people to add/remove/invoke observers (callbacks) to any ITK object. This is an implementation of the subject/observer design pattern. An observer is added by specifying an event to respond to and an itk::Command to execute. It returns an unsigned long tag which can be used later to remove the event or retrieve the command. The memory for the Command becomes the responsibility of this object, so don't pass the same instance of a command to two different objects

virtual LightObject::Pointer itk::Object::CreateAnother (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Create an object from an instance, potentially deferring to a factory. This method allows you to create an instance of an object that is exactly the same type as the referring object. This is useful in cases where an object has been cast back to a base class.

Reimplemented from itk::LightObject.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOff (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Turn debugging output off.

virtual void itk::Object::DebugOn (  )  const [virtual, inherited]

Turn debugging output on.

virtual void itk::LightObject::Delete (  )  [virtual, inherited]

Delete an itk object. This method should always be used to delete an object when the new operator was used to create it. Using the C delete method will not work with reference counting.

Command* itk::Object::GetCommand ( unsigned long  tag  )  [inherited]

Get the command associated with the given tag. NOTE: This returns a pointer to a Command, but it is safe to asign this to a Command::Pointer. Since Command inherits from LightObject, at this point in the code, only a pointer or a reference to the Command can be used.

template<class TFixedImage, class TMovingImage>
void itk::MutualInformationImageToImageMetric< TFixedImage, TMovingImage >::ReinitializeSeed (  ) 

Reinitialize the seed of the random number generator that selects the sample of pixels used for estimating the image histograms and the joint histogram. By nature, this metric is not deterministic, since at each run it may select a different set of pixels. By initializing the random number generator seed to the same value you can restore determinism. On the other hand, calling the method ReinitializeSeed() without arguments will use the clock from your machine in order to have a very random initialization of the seed. This will indeed increase the non-deterministic behavior of the metric.
