Abstract
This paper studies on the image registration of the medical images. Wavelet transform is adopted to decompose the medical images because the resolution of the medical image is high and the computational amount of the registration is large. Firstly, the low frequency sub-images are matched. Then source images are matched. The image registration was fulfilled by the ant colony optimization algorithm to search the extremum of the mutual information. The experiment result demonstrates the proposed approach can not only reduce calculation amount, but also skip from the local extremum during optimization process, and search the optimization value.
