Objective

To develop applications for image registration that can be distributed easily to other sites.

Approach, Plan

Our plan for the project week is to

• Convert the SICLE image registration algorithm to use ITK.
• Use CPack to package the sicle.exe program.
• Setup and use a DART Dashboard at Iowa.
• Select a license for software.
• Compare and contrast the execution speed and memory requirements of the ITK sicle.exe with original lereg2.exe.
• Investigate integration of wxWidgets with ITK and VTK.
• Compare and contrast the performance of Kwwidgets and wxWidgets

Progress

• Started taking apart our existing SICLE implementation and reorganizing classes. The code base is in need of renovation.
• CDash has been set up.
• Discussed licensing issues - need final decision.
• Discussed performance issues involving porting our code to use ITK - particularly memory issues involved with strided images (complex conjugate symmetry).
• Learned more about CMake and CPack.
