Abstract
Enhancements to the Volume-based Extended Gaussian Image (V-EGI) registration are described. The first enhancement is the capability to recover positional difference (in additional to rotational difference) between volumetric datasets. The second, and most important, enhancement uses a multi-stage coarse-to-fine processing strategy to improve computational speed. That enhancement also incorporates an optimization scheme to enable the strategy to maintain accuracy. The third enhancement is a methodology that achieves a moderate degree of parallelism on current-generation multi-core CPUs. Results of application of these methodologies to multiple datassets are also presented.
