Registration of 3D Triangular Models to 2D X-ray Projections Using Black-box Optimisation and X-ray Simulation

Use of fast realistic simulations on GPU to extract CAD models from microtomographic data in the presence of strong CT artefacts

“…However, there is no image comparison method that fits all problems. For complex transformations or complex image comparison metrics, sophisticated optimisation algorithms must be used [38] as the choice of optimisation algorithm, stopping criteria, and objective function can significantly affect the result of the registration [36]. The two images that are being registered must be compared in order to minimise their discrepancies or maximise their similarities.…”
