Hi, I am an absolute beginner when it comes to ITK and I am tasked with performing a fairly complex image registration task ( Registration of thermal images ). I ran a few example notebooks within the repo and I wanted to learn about the theory behind the algorithms. I was wondering if there are any blog posts any books I could refer. Until now I have only gone through the SimpleITK tutorial.
Hello @aryamansriram,
The ITK/SimpleITK registration frameworks are what is known as classical registration (non deep learning). Below are various papers and books you may find useful.

There is also ITK Software Guide, which is a hybrid of a book and library tutorial.
