Abstract
In this paper, we propose a novel affine iterative closest point algorithm based on color information and correntropy, which can effectively deal with the registration problems with a large number of noise and outliers and small deformations in RGB-D datasets. Firstly, to alleviate the problem of low registration accuracy for data with weak geometric structures, we consider introducing color features into traditional affine algorithms to establish more accurate and reliable correspondences. Secondly, we introduce the correntropy measurement to overcome the influence of a large amount of noise and outliers in the RGB-D datasets, thereby further improving the registration accuracy. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed registration algorithm has higher registration accuracy, with error reduction of almost 10 times, and achieves more stable robustness than other advanced algorithms.

Abstract
Robust point set registration is a challenging problem, especially in the cases of noise, outliers, and partial overlapping. Previous methods generally formulate their objective functions based on the mean-square error (MSE) loss and, hence, are only able to register point sets under predefined constraints (e.g., with Gaussian noise). This article proposes a novel objective function based on a bidirectional kernel mean p -power error (KMPE) loss, to jointly deal with the above nonideal situations. KMPE is a nonsecond-order similarity measure in kernel space and shows a strong robustness against various noise and outliers. Moreover, a bidirectional measure is applied to judge the registration, which can avoid the ill-posed problem when a lot of points converges to the same point. In particular, we develop two effective optimization methods to deal with the point set registrations with the similarity and the affine transformations, respectively. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of our methods.

Abstract
Point set registration is a problem with a long history in many pattern recognition tasks. This paper presents a robust point set registration algorithm based on optimizing the distance between two probability distributions. A major problem in point to point algorithms is defining the correspondence between two point sets. This paper follows the idea of some probability-based point set registration methods by representing the point sets as Gaussian mixture models (GMMs). By optimizing the distance between the two GMMs, rigid transformations (rotation and translation) between two point sets can be obtained without having to find a correspondence. Previous studies have used L2, Kullback Leibler, etc. distance to measure similarity between two GMMs; however, these methods have problems with robustness to noise and outliers, especially when the covariance matrix is large, or a local minimum exists. Therefore, in this paper, the signature quadratic form distance is derived to measure the distribution similarity. The contribution of this paper lies in adopting the signature quadratic form distance for the point set registration algorithm. The experimental results show the precision and robustness of this algorithm and demonstrate that it outperforms other state-of-the-art point set registration algorithms regarding factors, such as noise, outliers, missing partial structures, and initial misalignment.

Abstract
PURPOSE Clinical examinations that involve endoscopic exploration of the nasal cavity and sinuses often do not have a reference preoperative image, like a computed tomography (CT) scan, to provide structural context to the clinician. The aim of this work is to provide structural context during clinical exploration without requiring additional CT acquisition. METHODS We present a method for registration during clinical endoscopy in the absence of CT scans by making use of shape statistics from past CT scans. Using a deformable registration algorithm that uses these shape statistics along with dense point clouds from video, we simultaneously achieve two goals: (1) register the statistically mean shape of the target anatomy with the video point cloud, and (2) estimate patient shape by deforming the mean shape to fit the video point cloud. Finally, we use statistical tests to assign confidence to the computed registration. RESULTS We are able to achieve submillimeter errors in registrations and patient shape reconstructions using simulated data. We establish and evaluate the confidence criteria for our registrations using simulated data. Finally, we evaluate our registration method on in vivo clinical data and assign confidence to these registrations using the criteria established in simulation. All registrations that are not rejected by our criteria produce submillimeter residual errors. CONCLUSION Our deformable registration method can produce submillimeter registrations and reconstructions as well as statistical scores that can be used to assign confidence to the registrations.

Abstract
This work introduces a method for performing robust registration given the geometric model of an object and a small number (less than 20) of sparse point and surface normal measurements of the object’s surface. Such a method is of critical importance in applications such as probing-based surgical registration, contact-based localization, manipulating objects devoid of visual features, etc. Our approach for sparse point and normal registration (SPNR) is iterative in nature. In each iteration, the current best pose estimate is perturbed to generate several candidate poses. Among the generated poses, one pose is selected as the best, by evaluating an inexpensive cost function. This pose is used as the initial condition to estimate the locally optimum registration. This process is repeated until the registration estimate converges within a tolerance bound. Two variants are developed: deterministic (dSPNR) and probabilistic (pSPNR). The dSPNR is faster than pSPNR in converging to the local optimum, but the pSPNR requires fewer parameters to be tuned. The pSPNR also provides pose-uncertainty information in addition to the registration estimate. Both approaches were evaluated in simulation using various standard datasets and then compared with results obtained using state-of-the-art methods. Upon comparison with other methods, both dSPNR and pSPNR were found to be robust to initial pose errors as well as noise in measurements. The effectiveness of the approaches are also demonstrated with robot experiments for the application of probing-based registration.

Abstract
This paper proposes a global approach for the multi-view registration of unordered range scans. Our method starts with the pair-wise registration, where multi-scale descriptor is selected for feature point and the propagation of feature correspondence is accordingly accelerated. Subsequently, we design an effective rule to judge the reliability of these pair-wise registration results. According to the judgment of reliability, we propose a model fusion method, which can utilize reliable results of pair-wise registration to augment the model shape. Finally, multi-view registration can be achieved by operating the pair-wise registration, reliability judgment, and model fusion alternately. The proposed approach can be applied to scene reconstruction and robot mapping. Experimental results conducted on public datasets show that the proposed approach can automatically achieve multi-view registration of unordered range scans. Compared with other related approaches, the proposed approach has superior performances in accuracy and effectiveness.

Abstract
This paper presents a robust 3D point cloud registration algorithm based on bidirectional Maximum Correntropy Criterion (MCC). Comparing with traditional registration algorithm based on the mean square error (MSE), using the MCC is superior in dealing with complex registration problem with non-Gaussian noise and large outliers. Since the MCC is considered as a probability measure which weights the corresponding points for registration, the noisy points are penalized. Moreover, we propose to use bidirectional measures which can maximum the overlapping parts and avoid the registration result being trapped into a local minimum. Both of these strategies can better apply the information theory method to the point cloud registration problem, making the algorithm more robust. In the process of implementation, we integrate the fixed-point optimization technique based on the iterative closest point algorithm, resulting in the correspondence and transformation parameters that are solved iteratively. The comparison experiments under noisy conditions with related algorithms have demonstrated good performance of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract
As life expectancy has become longer, the number of those who have some handicaps or diseases as well as the families, caregivers and medical staff who support them has been also increasing. While modern medical science has rapidly advanced by adopting the innovation of engineering technology especially in the fields of mechanical and electric engineering, the support for nursing, care and assistance by making use of engineering technology has only just begun. This special issue on “Nursing Engineering,” a combination of nursing and engineering, covers a wide range of themes such as the measuring equipment characterized by non-invasiveness, unconstraint and real-time for the purpose of helping patients and healthcare professionals and the development of the related technology; the development of the technology for the equipment to support recuperation, rehabilitation or convalescent life of patients; and active introduction of information technology and user interface technique into nursing study and its case studies. “Nursing Engineering” is expected to play increasingly important role to support medical treatment and everyday life of patients along with the highly professional medical staff by making practical use of the technology of robotics and mechatronics and incorporating rehabilitation science, welfare engineering and technology for assistance.

Abstract
Three-dimensional surface registration transforms multiple three-dimensional data sets into the same coordinate system so as to align overlapping components of these sets. Recent surveys have covered different aspects of either rigid or nonrigid registration, but seldom discuss them as a whole. Our study serves two purposes: 1) To give a comprehensive survey of both types of registration, focusing on three-dimensional point clouds and meshes and 2) to provide a better understanding of registration from the perspective of data fitting. Registration is closely related to data fitting in which it comprises three core interwoven components: model selection, correspondences and constraints, and optimization. Study of these components 1) provides a basis for comparison of the novelties of different techniques, 2) reveals the similarity of rigid and nonrigid registration in terms of problem representations, and 3) shows how overfitting arises in nonrigid registration and the reasons for increasing interest in intrinsic techniques. We further summarize some practical issues of registration which include initializations and evaluations, and discuss some of our own observations, insights and foreseeable research trends.

Abstract
For accurate registration of overlapping free form shapes, different points in one shape must select different points in another as their most sensible correspondents. To reach this ideal state, in this paper we develop a novel algorithm to penalize those points in one shape that select the same closest point in another as their tentative correspondents. The novel algorithm then models the relative weight change over time of a tentative correspondence as the difference between the negative functions of the numbers of points in one shape that actually and ideally select the same closest point in another. Such modeling results in an optimal estimation of the weights of different tentative correspondences, in the sense of deterministic annealing, that lead the camera motion parameters to be estimated in the weighted least squares sense. The proposed algorithm is initialized using the pure translational motion derived from the centroids difference of the overlapping free form shapes being registered. Experimental results show that it outperforms three selected state-of-the-art algorithms on the whole for the accurate and robust registration of real overlapping free form shapes captured using two different laser scanners under typical imaging conditions.
