BINDER models voxel correspondence in multimodal images as a latent variable, weighting nearby candidates by B-spline proximity and intensity compatibility. The model supports an EM registration optimizer and a Gibbs sampler for alternative deformations. Across nine tasks, it reached Dice 0.739 versus 0.336 for Elastix in abdominal MR-to-CT registration with transferred configurations. Regularization remains user-set; sampling slow and assessment limited.
