Genetic algorithms for a robust 3-D MR-CT registration.

Presents an original usage of genetic algorithms as a robust search space sampler in an application to 3D medical image elastic registration. An overview of the standard steps of a registration algorithm is given. We focus on the genetic algorithm use, and particularly on the problem of extracting t...
