Hi Federica,

There are two registration steps in cvs_register. One is the surface-based registration step that aligns the curvature patterns of the inputs, and the volumetric registration step that, by default, uses SSE (sum of squared errors)

Best, Lilla

Dear experts,

May I ask you which cost function is used by mri_cvs_register?
Thank you so much for your support!
