* Nicholas: student from Tokyo
 
* Benjamin: student from ETHZ, be at SPL for 6 mo. till May 31, 2008. Experience in golfing simulator, histoscopy simulator, open-source game software. His project here is GPU accelerated Slicer for 4D IGT.
 
 
 
 
 
# Nicholas update on his CUDA project
 
* Rigid and non-rigid registration using CUDA using Nvidia 8800 GTX (350GFlps) compatible with CUDA platform.
 
* Rigid registration (Japanese cas paper)
 
[[Image:RigidReg.jpg]]
 
 
 
Rigid registration using affine transformation, MI similarity measure, and Powell optimization method implemented on CUDA platform. GPU-acceleration was performed on affine transformation and MI similarity measure. Performance boost of around x12 was achieved.
 
* Non-rigid registration (also Japanese CAS paper)
 
[[Image:NonrigidReg.jpg]]
 
 
 
Non-rigid registration using Rueckert's B-spline algorithm. Performance boost of around x10-x20 was achieved.
 
 
 
#Tool kit used
 
*CUDA calculator
 
*8800GTX, 8800GTS, Quadro FX5600, Tesla C870 is CUDA 1.0 compatible
 
*8600GTS, 8800GT is CUDA 1.1 compatible which comes with Atomic function to control concurrent access to memory from multiple thread
 
 
 
# Extension to ITK
 
* CMake turn on/off #DEFINE
 
* VTK VolumePro as part of volume rendering
 
* ITK parallelized process
 
* [Action items, Nicholas] Mid-term goal for Nicholas is to port his rigid and non-rigid registration to ITK
 
* [Action items, Nicholas] Contact Utah team hear how exactly they implement their ITK.
 
* [Action items, Nicholas] sending volume rendering code by Dec. 6th.
 
 
 
# Volume rendering
 
* CUDA accelerated volume rendering
 
* x15 - 20 improvement
 
* [[media:SIGGRAPH-GPU.pdf|comparison to other people's CG-based volume rendering]]
 
* [Action items, Benjamin] port CUDA-based volume rendering to vtk volume rendering classes, and then to Slicer
 
* [Action items, Benjamin] succeed Nicholas' itk-cuda-rigid non-rigid registration and port them to Slicer in the context of MRg cardiac ablation
 
 
 
# Timeline
 
* NH will write paper on IV-CUDA rendering for Journal
 
* Hata suggested publication of ITK-CUDA registration in Insight Journal (Feb)
 
* Benjamin will have short summery as of March 15 for MICCAI.
 
* Benjamin will finish his project by May 15th.
 
* Benjamin
 
# Communication
 
Bi-weekly t-con to update each other week. Next one is Dec 11, 2007 at 9am.
