Cavoretto, R.; De Rossi, A.; Quatember, B. Landmark-based registration using a local radial basis function transformation. (English) Zbl 1434.94007 JNAIAM, J. Numer. Anal. Ind. Appl. Math. 5, No. 3-4, 141-152 (2011). Summary: In this paper we propose the use of a local image transformation involving radial basis functions for landmark-based registration of medical images. More precisely, we consider radial basis functions as nodal functions in the modified Shepard method. In this way we obtain an image transformation more accurate and stable than the one given by the global radial basis functions, as shown by numerical results.
