This paper presents a nonlinear image registration algorithm based on the setting of Large Deformation Diffeomorphic Metric Mapping (LDDMM), but with a more efficient optimisation scheme — both in terms of memory required and the number of iterations required to reach convergence. Rather than perfor...
