Hi.
Another question you might want to think about is what you actually mean by center of geometry, but maybe you have already.
Most views even of symmetric particles will not be symmetric so the only center you can define is the center of gravity, which is very sensitive to noise. If the views are symmetric you can use that symmetry to find the position of the symmetry axis.
All the best,
Philip

Dear Steven Wang,
Alignment is more of a statistical issue affecting the whole data set than something that should be done on an individual (noisy) particle-by-particle basis.
See, for example, our: "Alignment By Classification" (ABC) paper:
http://journals.iucr.org/m/issues/2017/05/00/kf5002/index.html
But our IMAGIC-4D software does of course have various options to do it particle-by-particle if that is what you insist you need for testing.
Cheers
