COCGV: a method for multi-modality 3D volume registration

Even with the large quantity of registration algorithms available, there is still a significant number of potential users who are not able to grasp the technical aspects of a particular algorithm in order to use it to its fall potential. Thus, in most non-ideal cases, registrations are either non-optimal or worse, unsuccessful. The COCGV algorithm is an attempt to provide an easily understandable algorithm which is accurate, fast, automatic and robust. It allows registration of volumes created using many different types of modalities and permits the user to conceptually understand how the registration is working and to visually see how the registration is progressing
