Such a procedure facilitates design of good affinity matrices. It also helps assess the importance of different feature types for discrimination. Rather than formulating the learning problem in terms of the spectral relaxation, the alternative we pursue here is to work in the original discrete setting (i.e., the relaxation occurs much later). We show that this strategy is useful - while the initial specification seems rather difficult to optimize efficiently, a set of manipulations reveal a related model which permits a nice SDP relaxation. A salient feature of our model is that the eventual problem size is only a function of the number of input kernels and not the training set size. This relaxation also allows strong optimality guarantees, if certain conditions are satisfied. We show that the sub-kernel weights obtained provide a complementary approach for MKL based methods.

The resulting procedure allows us to select a reduced number of landmarks to be labeled as a part of the registration procedure. We apply this methodology to the problem of registering cerebral cortical surfaces extracted from MRI data. We use manually traced sulcal curves as landmarks in performing inter-subject registration of these surfaces. To minimize the error metric, we analyze the correlation structure of the sulcal errors in the landmark points by modeling them as a multivariate Gaussian process. Selection of the optimal subset of sulcal curves is performed by computing the error variance for the subset of unconstrained landmarks conditioned on the constrained set.

In addition, a subject-specific atlas based tissue segmentation algorithm is specifically developed for the delineation of fine structures in the acquired neonatal brain MR images. The proposed tissue segmentation method first enhances the sheet-like cortical gray matter (GM) structures in neonatal images with a Hessian filter for generation of cortical GM prior. Then, the prior is combined with our neonatal population atlas to form a cortical enhanced hybrid atlas, which we refer to as the subject-specific atlas.
