/** \class TransformParametersAdaptorBase
 * \brief Base helper class intended for multi-resolution image registration.
 *
 * During multi-resolution image registration, it is often useful to expand
 * the number of parameters describing the transform when going from one level
 * to the next.  For example, in B-spline registration, one often wants to
 * increase the mesh size (or, equivalently, the control point grid size) for
 * increased flexibility in optimizing the transform.  This requires the
 * propagation of the current transform solution to the next level where the
 * solution is identical but with an increase in the number of parameters.
 * This base class and those derived classes are meant to handle these types of
 * situations.
 *
 * Basic usage will involve the user specifying the required fixed parameters, i.e.
 *
     \code
     transformAdaptor->SetTransform( transform );
     transformAdaptor->SetRequiredFixedParameters( fixedParameters );
     transformAdaptor->AdaptTransformParameters();
     \endcode
 *
 * which will adjust the transform based on the new fixed parameters.
