Filters for three-dimensional limited-angle tomography

Thrust - Limited Optimal Three - Dimensional Spacecraft Trajectories

Several optimal three-dimensional orbital transfer problems are solved for thrust-limited spacecrafts using collocation and nonlinear programming techniques. The solutions for full nonlinear equations of motion are obtained where the integrals of the free Keplerian motion in three dimensions are utilized for coasting arcs. In order to limit the solution space, interior-point constraints are use...

TGV sinogram inpainting for limited angle tomography

X-ray computed tomography (CT) plays a very important role in daily biomedical practice for diagnosis and therapy, and in materials science for accurate data analysis and quality control. Besides accurate and robust image reconstruction, there is a growing interest in methods for limited angle tomography. The idea is to reduce the X-ray dose delivered to patients or to cope with physical angle ...

Weight factors for limited angle photoacoustic tomography.

Photoacoustic tomography (PAT) is based on the generation of ultrasound waves by heating an object with short light pulses. A three-dimensional image of the distribution of absorbed energy within the object is reconstructed from signals measured around the object with either point-like or extended, linear sensors. Limited angle artefacts arise when the curve or surface connecting neighbouring d...

Complementary data fusion for limited-angle tomography

Ambiguity in the solution of inverse problems arises when data are insufficient to define a unique solution (i.e., the problem is ill-posed). Data fusion has the potential to reduce this ambiguity by using other sensory data that complement the original data. This paper examines the application of data fusion to limited-angle computed tomography (CT) to resolve ambiguity. While CT in its conven...
