part of ANTS registration suite

## NAME

antsLandmarkBasedTransformInitializer - part of ANTS registration suite

## SYNOPSIS

**antsLandmarkBasedTransformInitializer** *dimension fixedImage movingImage transformType outputTransform* \[*meshSize*\[*0*\]*xmeshSize*\[*1*\]*x*...*=1x1x1*\] \[*numberOfLevels=4*\] \[*order=3*\] \[*enforceStationaryBoundaries=1*\] \[*landmarkWeights*\]

## DESCRIPTION

### Notes:

-

  1\) transformType = "rigid", "affine", or "bspline". 2) The optional arguments only apply to the bspline transform. 3) The landmark weights are read from a text file where each row is either:

-

  "label,labelWeight" or "labelWeight"

-

  If the latter format is used, the label weights are assumed to be arranged in ascending order by label.
