Affine Image Matching

FireANTs supports multi-scale affine image matching between two images. Affine transformations are more flexible than rigid transformations, as they allow for scaling, rotation, and shearing.

Initialization: You can pass init_rigid="cof" to set the initial translation to \(c_m - c_f\) (center of moving minus center of fixed) and the linear part to identity. Pass a tensor (e.g. from rigid or moment matching) to use a custom initial affine.

Bases: AbstractRegistration

Affine registration class for linear image alignment.

This class implements affine registration between fixed and moving images using gradient descent optimization. Affine transformations are linear transformations that include translation, rotation, scaling, and shearing operations.

Note about initialization and optimization
  • All initializations assume the format y = Ax + t (rigid, affine, moments)
  • However, optimization works better with the format y = A(x-c) + c + t' (where c is the center of the image)
  • therefore, we need to compute t' = t - c + Ac as the learnable parameter if around_center=True
Parameters:
  • scales (List[float]) –

    Downsampling factors for multi-resolution optimization. Must be in descending order (e.g. [4,2,1]).

  • iterations (List[int]) –

    Number of iterations to perform at each scale. Must be same length as scales.

  • fixed_images (BatchedImages) –

    Fixed/reference images to register to.

  • moving_images (BatchedImages) –

    Moving images to be registered.

  • loss_type (str) –

    Similarity metric to use. Defaults to "cc".

  • optimizer (str) –

    Optimization algorithm - 'SGD' or 'Adam'. Defaults to 'SGD'.

  • optimizer_params (dict) –

    Additional parameters for optimizer. Defaults to {}.

  • loss_params (dict) –

    Additional parameters for loss function. Defaults to {}.

  • optimizer_lr (float) –

    Learning rate for optimizer. Defaults to 0.1.

  • mi_kernel_type (str) –

    Kernel type for MI loss. Defaults to 'gaussian'

  • cc_kernel_type (str) –

    Kernel type for CC loss. Defaults to 'rectangular'.

  • cc_kernel_size (int) –

    Kernel size for CC loss. Defaults to 3.

  • tolerance (float) –

    Convergence tolerance. Defaults to 1e-6.

  • max_tolerance_iters (int) –

    Max iterations for convergence. Defaults to 10.

  • init_rigid (Optional[Union[torch.Tensor, str]]) –

    Initial affine matrix. If a tensor, used directly; if the string "cof", use identity for the linear part and translation c_m - c_f (center of moving minus center of fixed). Defaults to None.

  • custom_loss (nn.Module) –

    Custom loss module. Defaults to None.

  • blur (bool) –

    Whether to blur images during downsampling. Defaults to True.

  • around_center (bool) –

    Whether to apply affine around the center of the image. Defaults to True.

Attributes:
  • affine (nn.Parameter) –

    Learnable affine transformation matrix [N, D, D+1]

  • row (torch.Tensor) –

    Bottom row for homogeneous coordinates [N, 1, D+1]

    SGD or Adam optimizer instance
