A penalised likelihood approach to image warping
Warping functions, which deform images by mapping between image domains,
are
a key component of imaging technology. We estimate these functions by
maximising a penalised likelihood, strategically constructed through a
new
image model to measure similarity between images and new distortion
criteria
to penalise warpings. The power of the method is illustrated through
registering a remotely-sensed image, aligning microscope images, and
discriminating between species of fish.
Attendance is free and no preregistration is required.
A buffet supper is to follow (£14 per person). Those wishing to attend
the supper please contact Nicola Emmerson at [log in to unmask]
or phone: 020 7638 8998 before 10 February.
