Abstract

Image registration Image processing--Digital techniques Computer Engineering
Spline based deformation methods are common in medical imaging due to their robustness and accuracy. These methods require a significant amount of computation time in order to obtain a sufficiently accurate spatial deformation between two or more image volumes. This work focuses on comparing the thin-plate spline registration technique against the bspline on a variety of hardware architectures. The architectures in question include the common i5/i7 architecture with single and multiple threads, nVidia's CUDA architecture on the GTX760, and Intel's Xeon Phi architecture.
