The paper presents a comparative study between two popular transformation models in deformable image registration: B-spline models and mesh models. These models are optimized using different methods, but this paper uses a state-of-the-art multi-objective optimization method to compare them directly. The authors optimize both models with the same MO-RV-GOMEA algorithm and experimentally evaluate their performance on two pelvic CT scan-based registration problems featuring large deformations. The results show that the choice of transformation model can significantly impact the diversity and quality of achieved registration outcomes.

Imagine you’re trying to match up two images that have moved around a bit. This is called image registration, and it’s an important task in many fields like medicine. There are different ways to do this, but one key part is the “transformation model”. It helps figure out how much the images have moved. Some people use B-spline models and others use mesh models. These two models work differently, so it’s hard to compare them directly. But what if we could? That’s what this paper does. They take these two models and use a special method to optimize them both in the same way. Then they test how well each model works on some real-world problems involving CT scans of people with cervical cancer. The results show that which model you choose can make a big difference in how good the matching turns out.
