基于归一化互信息向量熵的多幅图像配准方法

提出了一种新的多幅图像配准方法，归一化互信息向量熵方法。这种方法先计算任意两幅图像间的联合概率分布，然后根据联合概率分布计算它们间的归一化互信息，把所有两幅图像组合得到的归一化互信息组成一个向量，最后计算该归一化互信息向量的熵。最大熵对应最佳配准位置。通过对人体脑部图像的刚体配准实验，从函数曲线、计算时间和配准精度方面，对新方法和其它三种方法进行了分析和比较。实验结果表明，新提出的方法可以提高配准精度、减少配准时间。

Multi-image registration based on entropy of normalized mutual information vector

A novel method for multi-image registration is proposed,which is called the entropy of normalized mutual information vector.This method first calculates joint probability distribution of any two images,and then calculates the normalized mutual information according to it.All the normalized mutual information of two images forms a vector,the normalized mutual information vector.At last the entropy of that vector is calculated.The maximal entropy corresponds to the optimal registration solution.The function c...
