Cover Story: The paper discusses nonrigid registration in point cloud processing, which is an important issue for applications like topographic data registration and dynamic shape reconstruction, and categorizes existing methods before proposing a novel approach that uses piecewise tricubic polynomials as a transformation model. This method provides tunable flexibility, a straightforward optimization process, and efficiently handles large datasets. The paper emphasizes its applications in remote sensing, focusing on registering various laser scanning point clouds. The proposed algorithm is open source and available on GitHub. View this paper
