Dear Siewmin and venkateswaran,

Thank you for your kindly help.  But I cannot download the attachments. Would you please sent it again.

Best,

Jinsong

Hello, Dear all,

I am trying to use Landmarker with the AIR functions. I am using a 32bit windows XP. According to the instruction, I need to compile the AIR 
functions myself. However,  I was not able to build those executable files. Are there anyone has those .exe files,and could share them with us.

Best regars,

Jinsong

Yi,

Landmarker can combine AIR matrix and LDDMM matrix. The button for this function is right below the button for multichannel remote LDDMM.
