The truth is hard to make: Validation of medical image registration
Abstract
An unsolved problem in medical image analysis is validation of methods. In this paper we will focus on image registration and in particular on nonlinear image registration, which is one of the hardest analysis problems to validate. The paper covers currently used methods of validation, comparative challenges and public datasets, as well as some of our own work in this area.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
