Principal Goals

As will be explicated in the later chapters, this project aims to discover a new way of registering data, i.e. aligning a set of images or volumes. Past work has motivated the belief that there are advanced criteria by which registration can be carried out. Not only will such registration be as powerful as desired, but also, as somewhat of a residue, one should be left with an entity expressing the data variation that was observed. What this means in simpler terms is that two disjunct contributions can be made by this work, assuming it ends up being successful. As it currently stands, not only were the goals better realised, but a significant step was made towards their establishment (Sections 7-11 reflect and support this argument).

Just as one would expect, research work involves a learning curve and the development of working relationships. A mentioning of this point-of-view can be found in this document although little emphasis has been put into unnecessarily or detailed bits of information. These are not pre-requisite formal goals, yet they are integrally used to serve the main goals which are purely scientific1.7.

In summary, goals have been realised at a much earlier stage and have so far been reached and fulfilled in a way that is debatably beyond satisfactory. This report aspires to prove that this is indeed the case. It is not inclined to concentrate too much on certain aspects such as the daily contributory involvements, but rather show the progress made, the experiments performed and some results and conclusions, of which there are plenty.
