/** \class NormalizedCorrelationPointSetToImageMetric
 * \brief Computes similarity between pixel values of a point set and 
 * intensity values of an image.
 *
 * This metric computes the correlation between point values in the fixed
 * point-set and pixel values in the moving image. The correlation is
 * normalized by the autocorrelation values of both the point-set and the
 * moving image. The spatial correspondence between the point-set and the image
 * is established through a Transform. Pixel values are taken from the fixed
 * point-set. Their positions are mapped to the moving image and result in
 * general in non-grid position on it.  Values at these non-grid position of
 * the moving image are interpolated using a user-selected Interpolator.
