Copyright 1999-2000 VA Linux Systems, Inc. http://www.nitrc.org GLIRT Latest News http://www.nitrc.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=2111 GLIRT (Groupwise and Longitudinal Image Registration Toolbox) provides solutions for both groupwise registration and longitudinal registration, which are the necessary steps for many brain-related applications. Specifically, groupwise registration is important for unbiased analysis of a large set of MR brain images. Therefore, in this software package, we have included two of our recently-developed groupwise registration algorithms: 1) Improved unbiased groupwise registration guided with the sharp group-mean image, and 2) Hierarchical feature-based groupwise registration with implicit template (Called as Groupwise-HAMMER for short). On the other hand, in this software package, we also included our recently-developed groupwise longitudinal registration algorithm that aligns not only the longitudinal image sequence for each subject, but also align all longitudinal image sequences of all subjects to the common space simultaneously.<br /> Details for the three methods included in this software package can be found in the following three papers:<br /> • Improved unbiased groupwise registration guided by sharp group-mean image:<br /> 1.

Since our software deals with the large dataset, we strongly suggest the users to run the software on linux server (with multiple cpus and enough memory), although we provide the windows version.
