Abstract

Olfactory Bulb Registration Accuracy Registration Error Surface Distance Wavelet Decomposition
A three-dimensional surface-based progressive alignment algorithm is proposed to recover nonlinear deformation field. The deformation field is represented with a multi-resolution wavelet expansion and is modeled by the partial differential equations of linear elasticity. We report of its use in spatial normalization of mouse brains reconstructed from sectional material. The wavelet alignment algorithm produced more than threefold improvement in accuracy over an affine (linear) alignment. Its susceptibility to sparse sampling, a problem when the data is derived from tissue sections, was evaluated. Registration accuracy was reduced by only two fold as sampling decreased six- fold.
