/** \class CenteredTransformInitializer
 * \brief CenteredTransformInitializer is a helper class intended to
 * initialize the center of rotation and the translation of Transforms having
 * the center of rotation among their parameters.
 *
 * This class is connected to the fixed image, moving image and transform
 * involved in the registration. Two modes of operation are possible:
 *
 * - Geometrical,
 * - Center of mass
 *
 * In the first mode, the geometrical center of the moving image is passed as
 * initial center of rotation to the transform and the vector from the center
 * of the  fixed image to the center of the moving image is passed as the
 * initial translation. This mode basically assumes that the anatomical objects
 * to be registered are centered in their respective images. Hence the best
 * initial guess for the registration is the one that superimposes those two
 * centers.
 *
 * In the second mode, the moments of gray level values are computed
 * for both images. The center of mass of the moving image is then
 * used as center of rotation. The vector between the two centers of
 * mass is passes as the initial translation to the transform. This
 * second approach assumes that the moments of the anatomical objects
 * are similar for both images and hence the best initial guess for
 * registration is to superimpose both mass centers.  Note that this
 * assumption will probably not hold in multi-modality registration.
