// This example illustrates the use of the \doxygen{BSplineTransform}
// class for performing registration of two $2D$ images in an ITKv4
// registration framework. Due to the large number of parameters of
// the BSpline transform, we will use a \doxygen{LBFGSOptimizerv4}
// instead of a simple steepest descent or a conjugate gradient
// descent optimizer.
