Method for registering a multiview image (I, J) provided by at least a first image acquisition device and a second image acquisition device, the method comprising: controlling the second image acquisition device using a current set ( p n) of photometric parameters during a current iteration to provide a second image; performing (202; 502) a geometric registration between a first image and the second image of the multiview image (I, J) to obtain a current geometric registration function (u n ( x)); performing (204; 504) a photometric registration between the first image and a geometrically registered version of the second image to obtain an update information (Δ(∂E/<∂ p)) for the current set ( p n) of photometric parameters, wherein the geometrically registered version is determined on the basis of the current geometric registration function (u n ( x)), wherein the geometric registration and the photometric registration are part of an overall registration process that is formulated in terms of an alternating energy minimization procedure, and wherein a geometric registration energy and a photometric registration energy are incorporated into a joint continuous energy functional; updating (206; 506) the current set ( p n) of photometric parameters on the basis of the update information (Δ(∂E/∂ p)) to obtain an updated set ( p n+1) of photometric parameters; repeating, with the updated set ( p n+1) of photometric parameters, the geometric registration and the photometric registration, wherein the second image acquisition device is controlled to use the updated set ( p n+1) of photometric parameters during the subsequent iteration, so that a new second image corresponding to the subsequent iteration is acquired with the updated set (p n+1) of photometric parameters. controlling the second image acquisition device using a current set ( p n) of photometric parameters during a current iteration to provide a second image; performing (202; 502) a geometric registration between a first image and the second image of the multiview image (I, J) to obtain a current geometric registration function (u n ( x)); performing (204; 504) a photometric registration between the first image and a geometrically registered version of the second image to obtain an update information (Δ(∂E/<∂ p)) for the current set ( p n) of photometric parameters, wherein the geometrically registered version is determined on the basis of the current geometric registration function (u n ( x)), wherein the geometric registration and the photometric registration are part of an overall registration process that is formulated in terms of an alternating energy minimization procedure, and wherein a geometric registration energy and a photometric registration energy are incorporated into a joint continuous energy functional; updating (206; 506) the current set ( p n) of photometric parameters on the basis of the update information (Δ(∂E/∂ p)) to obtain an updated set ( p n+1) of photometric parameters; repeating, with the updated set ( p n+1) of photometric parameters, the geometric registration and the photometric registration, wherein the second image acquisition device is controlled to use the updated set ( p n+1) of photometric parameters during the subsequent iteration, so that a new second image corresponding to the subsequent iteration is acquired with the updated set (p n+1) of photometric parameters.
