| Abstract | In this paper we present a new robust method for medical image registration called combined feature ensemble mutual information (COFEMI). While mutual information (MI) has become arguably the most popular similarity metric for image registration, intensity based MI schemes have been found wanting in inter-modal and interprotocol image registration, especially when (1) significant image differences across modalities (e.g. pathological and radiological studies) exist, and (2) when imaging artifacts have significantly altered the characteristics of one or both of the images to be registered. Intensity-based MI registration methods operate by maximization of MI between two images A and B. The COFEMI scheme extracts over 450 feature representations of image B that provide additional information about A not conveyed by image B alone and are more robust to the artifacts affecting original intensity image B. COFEMI registration operates by maximization of combined mutual information (CMI) of the image A with the feature ensemble associated with B. The combination of information from several feature images provides a more robust similarity metric compared to the use of a single feature image or the original intensity image alone. We also present a computer-assisted scheme for determining an optimal set of maximally informative features for use with our CMI formulation. We quantitatively and qualitatively demonstrate the improvement in registration accuracy by using our COFEMI scheme over the traditional intensity based-Mi scheme in registering (1) prostate whole mount histological sections with corresponding magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) slices; and (2) phantom brain T1 and T2 MRI studies, which were adversely affected by imaging artifacts |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
