Given two sets of corresponding points, calculates warp between them. Uses booksteins PAMI89 method. Can then apply warp to a new set of points (tpsInterpolate), or even an image (tpsInterpolateIm). "Principal Warps: Thin-Plate Splines and the Decomposition of Deformations". Bookstein. PAMI 1989. USAGE [warp,L,LnInv,bendE] = tpsGetWarp( lambda, xsS, ysS, xsD, ysD ) INPUTS lambda - rigidity of warp (inf means warp becomes affine) xsS, ysS - [1xn] correspondence points from source image xsD, ysD - [1xn] correspondence points from destination image OUTPUTS warp - bookstein warping parameters L, LnInv - see bookstein bendE - bending energy EXAMPLE - 1 xsS=[0 -1 0 1]; ysS=[1 0 -1 0]; xsD=xsS; ysD=[3/4 1/4 -5/4 1/4]; warp = tpsGetWarp( 0, xsS, ysS, xsD, ysD ); [gxs, gys] = meshgrid(-1.25:.25:1.25,-1.25:.25:1.25); tpsInterpolate( warp, gxs, gys, 1 ); EXAMPLE - 2 xsS = [3.6929 6.5827 6.7756 4.8189 5.6969]; ysS = [10.3819 8.8386 12.0866 11.2047 10.0748]; xsD = [3.9724 6.6969 6.5394 5.4016 5.7756]; ysD = [6.5354 4.1181 7.2362 6.4528 5.1142]; warp = tpsGetWarp( 0, xsS, ysS, xsD, ysD ); [gxs, gys] = meshgrid(3.5:.25:7, 8.5:.25: 12.5); tpsInterpolate( warp, gxs, gys, 1 ); See also TPSINTERPOLATE, TPSINTERPOLATEIM, TPSRANDOM Piotr's Computer Vision Matlab Toolbox Version 2.0 Copyright 2014 Piotr Dollar.
