--downsample-to <integer>, -D <integer>

Final downsampling factor [1]. [Default: 1]

--sampling-density <float>, -s <float>

Probabilistic sampling density [default: off]. [Default: -1]

Output Options

--histogram-bins <integer>, -H <integer>

Set number of histogram bins for entropy evaluation. [Default: disabled]

--crop-histograms

Crop image histograms to make better use of histogram bins.

--match-histograms

Match all image histograms to template data (or first image, if no template image is given)

--repeat-match-histograms

Frequetly repeat histogram-based intensity matching to account for changing volume proportions.

--smooth-pixels <double>

--smooth-cps <double>

Sigma of Gaussian smoothing kernel in multiples of control point delta [Default: disabled]

Transformation Parameters

--grid-spacing <double>

Control point grid spacing. [Default: 40]

--grid-spacing-fit

Optional threshold to terminate optimization (level) if relative change of target function drops below this value. [Default: 0]

--partial-gradient-thresh <float>, -p <float>

Threshold factor for partial gradient zeroing [<0 turn off] [Default: 0]

--activate-uninformative

Activate potentially uninformative control points
