Abstract
Image registration based on landmarks and radial basis functions (e.g. thin plate splines) results in global changes and deformation spreads over the entire resampled image. This paper presents a radial basis function for registration of local changes. The proposed research was based on study/analysis of profile for different radial basis functions, supporting local changes. The proposed function was designed to overcome the weaknesses, observed in other radial basis functions. The results are analyzed/compared on the basis of different properties and parameters discussed in this paper. Experimental results show that the proposed function improves the registration accuracy.
