Whenever images taken at different times, from different viewpoints, and/or by different sensors need to be compared, merged, or integrated, image registration is required. Registration, also known as alignment, fusion, or warping, is the process of transforming data into a common reference frame.This book provides an overview of state-of-the-art registration techniques from theory to practice, plus numerous exercises designed to enhance readers’ understanding of the principles and mechanisms of the described techniques. It also provides, via a supplementary Web page, free access to FAIR.m, a package that is based on the MATLAB® software environment, which enables readers to experiment with the proposed algorithms and explore the presented examples in much more depth.
