| contents | Currently, cortical surface registration techniques based on classical methods have been well developed. However, a key issue with classical methods is that for each pair of images to be registered, it is necessary to search for the optimal transformation in the deformation space according to a specific optimization algorithm until the similarity measure function converges, which cannot meet the requirements of real-time and high-precision in medical image registration. Researching cortical surface registration based on deep learning models has become a new direction. But so far, there are still only a few studies on cortical surface image registration based on deep learning. Moreover, although deep learning methods theoretically have stronger representation capabilities, surpassing the most advanced classical methods in registration accuracy and distortion control remains a challenge. Therefore, to address this challenge, this paper constructs a deep learning model to study the technology of cortical surface image registration. The specific work is as follows: (1) An unsupervised cortical surface registration network based on a multi-scale cascaded structure is designed, and a convolution method based on spherical harmonic transformation is introduced to register cortical surface data. This solves the problem of scale-inflexibility of spherical feature transformation and optimizes the multi-scale registration process. (2)By integrating the attention mechanism, a graph-enhenced module is introduced into the registration network, using the graph attention module to help the network learn global features of cortical surface data, enhancing the learning ability of the network. The results show that the graph attention module effectively enhances the network's ability to extract global features, and its registration results have significant advantages over other methods. |
