Abstract

An apparatus includes input(s) for obtaining a first image and for obtaining a plurality of image parameters that includes at least a first image parameter and a second image parameter; a simulated image creation module configured for computing a plurality of simulated images based on the first image and the plurality of image parameters, the plurality of simulated images having at least a first simulated image computed based on the first image parameter, and a second simulated image computed based on the second image parameter, wherein the first simulated image has a first image quality, the second simulated image has a second image quality, and the first image quality is different from the second image quality; an image registration module configured for performing a plurality of image registrations using the simulated images; and a non-transitory medium configured for storing results from the act of performing the plurality of image registrations.
