Checking different shape OF's, texture remains abs_diff

zero,ssd and abs_diff give different yet apparently equally good results. something goes quite wrong with wtd_abs_diff because there appears to be a very fuzzy results where the images are unaligned. eigen causes the image to disappear, def_energy gives a very good answer if not the best. No results have yet been returned for shape. it is very time-consuming.
For all results in brief see: SHAPE_OFs-24112004 in experiments archive where all final results have been put.
