Q2. What have the authors stated for future works in "On the bijectivity of thin-plate splines" ?
Future work includes finding such conditions analytically as well as attempting to prove its convexity and boundness properties.
Q3. What is the purpose of the paper?
The thin-plate spline (TPS) is a natural choice of interpolating function in two dimensions and has been a commonly used tool in computer vision for over a decade.
Q4. What are the other properties of the set defined by the bijectivity constraints?
as are working within an optimization framework the authors are also interested in other properties of the set defined by the bijectivity constraints, such as if this set is convex, bounded and/or star-shaped.
Q5. What is the definition of a convex set?
in summation, is a high-dimensional, non-convex, unbounded monstrosity defined by an infinite number of indefinite quadratic constraints (which in addition also are non-linear in x).ditions for BijectivityGiven the complexity of the set of bijective thinplate spline deformations, the task finding a defining expression for it analytically is a formidable one.
Q6. What are the disadvantages of a TPS mapping?
a TPS-mapping has no inherent restriction to prevent folding from occurring, i.e. there are no constraints on when the mapping is non-bijective.
Q7. What is the way to solve the convex optimization problem?
Ω̃+ T = {Y ∈ R2k|ŶT BT(x)Ŷ > 0,for a finite number of x ∈ R2}With E1 and E2 defined by Ei = {p ∈ R n | pT Aip+2b T i p+ ci ≥ 0} and the bijectivity constraints in the form {Y ∈ Rn |Y T F (x)Y + 2gT Y + h(x) ≥ 0} the authors proceed.
Q8. What is the motivation for this paper?
That is, the optimization problem of finding a bijective deformation that minimizes some similarity function between image pairs.
Q9. What is the purpose of this paper?
And the authors are interested in knowing for which Y do the authors get a bijective deformation, i.e the setΩT = {Y ∈ R 2k|φT,Y(x) is bijective }Such a mapping φ : R → R is bijective if and only if its functional determinant |J(φ)| is nonzero.
Q10. What is the g of a thin plate spline?
The thin-plate spline mapping g : R2 → R2 given by a set of k control points (or landmarks) T and a set of k destination points Y such that g(T ) =
