  Description     : advanced normalization tools for brain and image mapping

The ANTS package is designed to enable researchers with advanced tools for
brain and image mapping. Many of the ANTS registration tools are
diffeomorphic, but deformation (elastic and BSpline) transformations are
available. Unique components of ANTS include multivariate similarity metrics,
landmark guidance, the ability to use label images to guide the mapping and
both greedy and space-time optimal implementations of diffeomorphisms. The
symmetric normalization (SyN) strategy is a part of the ANTS toolkit as is
directly manipulated free form deformation (DMFFD).
