The two main objectives of this project are to:
- Make construction of appearance (combined) models autonomous.
- Register a collection of images using the minimum description length
(MDL) principle.
It is worth mentioning that the two problems are closely-coupled.
Having found a solution to one, the other should be solvable as well.
Throughout the first year, and particularly at the beginning of the
second one, a method was devised to solving the problem on a small
scale. However, new difficulties emerged and the practicality of this
method was overshadowed by doubt. Here are a few milestones of progress:
- Sets of 1-D images could be registered based on MDL.
- The optimisation regime was substantially improved.
- The correct solution to the registration problem was identified.
- Correct combined models were constructed at the correct solution.
- It was realised that the correct solution can be missed.
- Refinement of combined model in the process of registration became
apparent.
