 //  Software Guide : BeginLatex
 //
 //  We should now define the number of spatial samples to be considered in
 //  the metric computation. Note that we were forced to postpone this setting
 //  until we had done the preprocessing of the images because the number of
 //  samples is usually defined as a fraction of the total number of pixels in
 //  the fixed image.
 //
 //  The number of spatial samples can usually be as low as $1\%$ of the total
 //  number of pixels in the fixed image. Increasing the number of samples
 //  improves the smoothness of the metric from one iteration to another and
 //  therefore helps when this metric is used in conjunction with optimizers
 //  that rely of the continuity of the metric values. The trade-off, of
 //  course, is that a larger number of samples result in longer computation
 //  times per every evaluation of the metric.
 //
 //  It has been demonstrated empirically that the number of samples is not a
 //  critical parameter for the registration process. When you start fine
 //  tuning your own registration process, you should start using high values
 //  of number of samples, for example in the range of $20\%$ to $50\%$ of the
 //  number of pixels in the fixed image. Once you have succeeded to register
 //  your images you can then reduce the number of samples progressively until
 //  you find a good compromise on the time it takes to compute one evaluation
 //  of the Metric. Note that it is not useful to have very fast evaluations
 //  of the Metric if the noise in their values results in more iterations
 //  being required by the optimizer to converge. You must then study the
 //  behavior of the metric values as the iterations progress.

 optimizer->MaximizeOn(); // We want to maximize mutual information (the default of the optimizer is to minimize)

 // Note that large values of the learning rate will make the optimizer
 // unstable. Small values, on the other hand, may result in the optimizer
 // needing too many iterations in order to walk to the extrema of the cost
 // function. The easy way of fine tuning this parameter is to start with
 // small values, probably in the range of $\{5.0,10.0\}$. Once the other
 // registration parameters have been tuned for producing convergence, you
 // may want to revisit the learning rate and start increasing its value until
 // you observe that the optimization becomes unstable.  The ideal value for
 // this parameter is the one that results in a minimum number of iterations
 // while still keeping a stable path on the parametric space of the
 // optimization. Keep in mind that this parameter is a multiplicative factor
 // applied on the gradient of the Metric. Therefore, its effect on the
 // optimizer step length is proportional to the Metric values themselves.
 // Metrics with large values will require you to use smaller values for the
 // learning rate in order to maintain a similar optimizer behavior.
