StackReg or similar

[Rainer M. Engel]

Hello everyone,

I have a filtered stack which works very nice with StackReg, but in
addition to a well aligned stack I would like to get the used
transformations (in modes transform and rigid i.e.).
My focus lies only on the position offsets.

Something like verbose to log would be fine.

If not possible, is there another way to get these values?

Thanks for time.

Regards,
Rainer

Try the image stabilizer plugin--log tells you number of pixels moved in x
and y, and you can also specify the amount that the initial template
changes, using the template update coefficient.

Rainer,

I wrote my own version of StackReg (needs TurboReg installed) that will output a translational trajectory along with the registration.  You can download it from my website (http://research.stowers.org/imagejplugins/) and it will show up in Plugins>Image Tools>StackRegJ.

Thank you both for your tips. Both appear very promising.

Very cool.

Ahoi,

'Register Virtual Stack Slices' does what you want (if I understand you correctly).

Hello,

regarding this dicussions:

do the StackReg and  Image stabilizer have a parameter to tell it how large
the maximal pixel shift between images can be?

we have some data, where it seems to fail the registration if the shift is
too large.

I made some tests. If anybody is interested.

ZIP-ARCHIVE:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/414433/imagej/aligning.zip

It Contains:
- s03_SOURCE.tif
- s03_StackReg.tif (very fast and good)

(not good/fast enough (maybe there are to me unknown tweaks))
- s03_ImageStabilizer.tif
- s03_RegVirtualStacks_Rigid.tif
- s03_RegVirtualStacks_Transformation.tif


I think there are purposes, when the actual registration with its
sampling is not needed and could be disabled to only get transformation
data for speed reasons.

Regards,
Rainer
