Objective
We want to implement the Mutual Information metric using partial voluming for the registration of multi-modal images. The aim is to correct EPI distortions in diffusion-weighted images (DWIs).
Approach, Plan
Our approach is to register the DWIs to the baseline (B0) image using affine transformations and mutual information. We are implementing a version of MI that interpolates both joint histogram and partial voluming. This is smoother than the Mattes MI currently in ITK.
