Dear Jochen,

Do you possibly know of an alternative ITK or VTK filter/class that can be used 
to do 3D point based registration which solves for rotation, translation and 
scaling?

Best regards,

Yashodhan

and translation in the MITK IGT

Dear Keshav,



mitk::NavigationDataLandmarkTransformFilter uses an
itk::QuaternionRigidTransform internally. Therefore, it can only handle
translation and rotation, no scaling or other operations. You would have
to transform your image or tracking data beforehand to use the same
scale. We have no other landmarktransform filter. You would have to
develop your own filter for that. If you are able to calculate a fitting
transform, you can use mitk::NavigationDataTransformFilter to apply it
to your NavigationData objects.



Best Regards,

Jochen








We were hoping you could provide help with some questions.

1) Does the NavigationDataLandmarkTransformFilter handle scaling? For
example, if the source data is in meters and the target data is in
millimeters. Or if the source data is scaled by some factor.

Only when we matched the source and target data measurement units
(Source/Target = 1) did we get a perfect transform. But when the source
data was in a different unit, the output was offset in an arbitrary
direction. I have attached some pictures:

In the pictures, the red ball should align with the circled purple ball.
This happens only when the source and target images are in the same
units/spacing

2) Is there a different filter we can use to get a landmark transform
between a generic 3D human image landmarks and landmarks on the target
body? This landmark transform will have to include scaling, shearing,
rotation and translation.

Any help with these questions is greatly appreciated. Looking forward to
hearing your comments.
