We have investigated the registration of mammograms based on the Tsallis entropy using mutual information measure. Tsallis entropy has one more parameter ‘q’ and the values of ‘q’ decide the quality of the registration. Existing Tsallis entropy based algorithms are not automatic as they claimed to be. In this article, an automatic affine image registration based on Tsallis entropy is proposed and its performance is analyzed for clinically acquired mammograms for globally registering them. The accuracy is compared with traditionally used mutual information and normalized mutual information based on Shannon entropy. Our algorithm shows promising results with increased accuracy with reduction in number of evaluations. Further, the need for pre-registration in mammogram is discussed in detail. Through this experiment, it is found that the proposed algorithm is effective enough to replace Shannon and existing Tsallis entropy based affine registration schemes.
