✨ ANTSALIGNORIGIN(1) 🎀 User Commands 💅

🌸 NAME

okay bestie, the name is antsAlignOrigin 🦋 and it's part of the ANTS registration suite 💜

💖 DESCRIPTION

🧚 COMMAND:

antsAlignOrigin

okay so antsAlignOrigin is literally the main character here ✨ you feed it an input image and it transforms that image using a reference image and a transform (or a whole set of transforms) 🔥 it's giving precision, no cap 💅

🎀 OPTIONS:

• -d, --dimensionality 2/3 — okay this one is lowkey important 🫶 it forces the image to be treated as a specified-dimensional image, so you pick 2 or 3 🌈 if you don't specify it, antsWarp tries to figure out the dimensionality from the input image on its own 🙈
• -i, --input inputFileName — ngl this is where you hand over your input 🍓 right now the only input objects supported are image objects 💅 but the framework is giving future vibes because it can also warp other stuff like meshes and point sets ✨
• -r, --reference-image imageFileName — the reference image is the MVP for warping input images 👑 it defines the spacing, origin, size, and direction of the output warped image 💜 so it basically sets the whole look of the final result 🦋
• -o, --output warpedOutputFileName — okay here's the choice moment 🌈 [transform,alignedImage] you can either output the warped image, or, if the boolean is set, you can print out the displacement field based on the composite transform and the reference image 🫶 both slay in their own way 💖
• -h — prints the help menu, short version 🌸 the value for this is 0 🧚
• --help — prints the full help menu 📖 the values are 1 or 0 ✨
