Does ITK provide non-rigid/deformable point set registration? I can’t seem to find anything on this through google.

[PointSetToPointSetRegistrationMethod](https://itk.org/Doxygen/html/classitk_1_1PointSetToPointSetRegistrationMethod.html) should work with all transform types, including deformable ones. Just use a deformable transform in one of the examples [[1](https://itk.org/Doxygen/html/Examples_2RegistrationITKv4_2IterativeClosestPoint1_8cxx-example.html#_a12), [3](https://itk.org/Doxygen/html/Examples_2RegistrationITKv4_2IterativeClosestPoint3_8cxx-example.html#_a6)].

Have you tried this? Is there a problem with it?
