提出新方法控制脑表面映射的几何失真,实现高精度配准。

Two-chart Beltrami Optimization for Distortion-Controlled Spherical Bijection with Application to Brain Surface Registration

  • 用双图表示球面拟共形映射,显式编码角度畸变
  • 在大规模点匹配与强度配准中保持低失真且双射性可靠
  • 适合需要几何保真的脑皮层表面注册任务

许多零亏格曲面映射任务(如特征点对齐、特征匹配和图像驱动配准)可通过初始球面共形映射简化为优化球面上具有可控畸变的自同胚映射。然而,现有方法缺乏高效控制映射几何畸变的机制。为此,本文将问题建模为贝尔特拉米空间优化,其中角度畸变由贝尔特拉米微分显式编码,双射性通过约束‖μ‖∞<1保证。为使该方法适用于球面,提出球面贝尔特拉米微分(SBD),采用双图表示单位球面𝕊²上的拟共形自映射,并引入跨图一致性条件,确保全局双射变形(至共形自同构意义下)。基于谱贝尔特拉米网络,构建了BOOST框架,可微更新两个贝尔特拉米场以最小化任务损失,同时正则化畸变并沿接缝处强制一致性。在大变形特征点匹配和基于强度的球面配准实验中,性能更优且畸变可控、双射性稳健。还将该方法应用于皮层表面注册,通过对齐沟回特征点和匹配皮层沟深,达到可比或更优的配准效果,且不牺牲几何有效性。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Many genus-0 surface mapping tasks such as landmark alignment, feature matching, and image-driven registration, can be reduced (via an initial spherical conformal map) to optimizing a spherical self-homeomorphism with controlled distortion. However, existing works lack efficient mechanisms to control the geometric distortion of the resulting mapping. To resolve this issue, we formulate this as a Beltrami-space optimization problem, where the angle distortion is encoded explicitly by the Beltrami differential and bijectivity can be enforced through the constraint $\|μ\|_{\infty}<1$. To make this practical on the sphere, we introduce the Spherical Beltrami Differential (SBD), a two-chart representation of quasiconformal self-maps of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$, together with cross-chart consistency conditions that yield a globally bijective spherical deformation (up to conformal automorphisms). Building on the Spectral Beltrami Network, we develop BOOST, a differentiable optimization framework that updates two Beltrami fields to minimize task-driven losses while regularizing distortion and enforcing consistency along the seam. Experiments on large-deformation landmark matching and intensity-based spherical registration demonstrate improved task performance meanwhile maintaining controlled distortion and robust bijective behavior. We also apply the method to cortical surface registration by aligning sulcal landmarks and matching cortical sulcal depth, achieving comparative or better registration performance without sacrificing geometric validity.
