We propose a new optimization model for non-rigid registration of images using multi-metrics. The ordinary searching step of optimization has been often trapped in local minima and produces wrong registration results. In this paper, if the condition occurs, multi-metrics model will switch to the other metrics to get rid of the local minima, vice versa. We have tested our approach in a variety of experimental conditions and compared the results with the optimization without multi-metrics. The results indicate that the new model is robust and fast in non-rigid registration.
