//  This examples shows how different stages can be cascaded together directly
//  in a multistage registration process. The example code is, for the most
//  part, identical to the previous multistage example. The main difference
//  is that no initial transform is used, and the output of the first stage
//  is directly linked to the second stage, and the whole registration process
//  is triggered only once by calling \code{Update()} after the last stage
//  stage.
//
//  We will focus on the most relevant changes in current code and skip all
//  the similar parts already explained in the previous example.

  //  In $X$ direction:

  //  11.6004 + 0.9219 = 12.5223
