• Abstract: This study proposes an end-to-end unsupervised diffeomorphic deformable registration framework based on moving mesh parameterization. Using this parameterization, a deformation field can be modeled with its transformation Jacobian determinant and curl of end velocity field. The new model of the deformation field has three important advantages; firstly, it relaxes the need for an explicit regularization term and the corresponding weight in the cost function. The smoothness is implicitly embedded in the solution which results in a physically plausible deformation field. Secondly, it guarantees diffeomorphism through explicit constraints applied to the transformation Jacobian determinant to keep it positive. Finally, it is suitable for cardiac data processing, since the nature of this parameterization is to define the deformation field in terms of the radial and rotational components. The effectiveness of the algorithm is investigated by evaluating the proposed method on three different data sets including 2D and 3D cardiac MRI scans. The results demonstrate that the proposed framework outperforms existing learning-based and non-learning-based methods while generating diffeomorphic transformations.

  Existing methods learn 3D rotations parametrized in the spatial domain using angles or quaternions. We propose a frequency-domain approach that directly predicts Wigner-D coefficients for 3D rotation regression. Our method achieves state-of-the-art results on benchmarks such as ModelNet10-SO(3) and PASCAL3D+.

This paper introduces a novel 3D-3D non-rigid registration method. In contrast to the preceding techniques, our method uniquely incorporates the FEM within the surface matching term itself.

  This paper introduces a framework designed to accurately predict piecewise linear mappings of arbitrary meshes via a neural network.

By operating in the intrinsic gradient domain of each individual mesh, it allows the framework to predict highly-accurate mappings.
