Key task in computer vision and graphics gets a boost
Kanazawa, Japan – Non-rigid point set registration is the process of finding a spatial transformation that aligns two shapes represented as a set of data points. It has extensive applications in areas such as autonomous driving, medical imaging, and robotic manipulation. Now, a method has been developed to speed up this procedure.
In a study published in IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, a researcher from Kanazawa University has demonstrated a technique that reduces the computing time for non-rigid point set registration relative to other approaches.
Previous methods to accelerate this process have been computationally efficient only for shapes described by small point sets (containing fewer than 100,000 points). Consequently, the use of such approaches in applications has been limited. This latest research aimed to address this drawback.

Cathryn Ambrose, Ben s mum
The following week, mum Cathryn Ambrose found her “funny, intelligent and kind” son unresponsive at home and he died on May 3 last year.
An inquest heard the pandemic turned Ben’s life upside down and he had waited over two years for an autism assessment.
Speaking after the inquest, Ms Ambrose said she fears for other vulnerable children affected by the pandemic and doesn’t believe families are being given enough support.
Ben was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder when he was five, a coroner heard, but also showed “autistic traits” including becoming fixated on things.
