Abstract
Optimizing an alignment of a first image having a first set of points and a second image having a second set of points includes selecting at least one point in the first set of points; selecting at least one point in the second set of points, each selected point in the second set of points corresponding to at least one of the at least one selected points in the first set of points; calculating at least one alignment index related to the at least one selected point in the second set of points; and generating an optimization based on the alignment index. Some embodiments further include applying the optimization to at least one of the points selected in the second set of points, thereby optimizing the alignment of the second image with the first image.
