Align 3D Maps, apply mask for alignment but not for output? (feature request)

That’s a good idea that I tried already, but it doesn’t actually produce a transformation of the original volume. I can see this by eye, and here’s my best guess of what’s causing the difference. My original volume was generated by non-uniform refinement with marginalization turned on. So,

  1. @mmclean confirmed before that Homogeneous Reconstruction Only does not marginalize over poses (Homogeneous reconstruction only (2) - #4 by mmclean)
  2. Here’s another relevant question I’ve always wondered about: in non-uniform refinement jobs, is the space-varying regularizer applied to the output volume at the very end, or is it only applied to the reference volume during pose marginalization?

For now, I had GPT write me a script that will convert the rotation matrix / translation vector output by Align 3D Maps into “re-centering” coordinates and euler angles that I can then feed into Volume Alignment Tools.
