چکیده

An inverse iterative algorithm for microwave imaging based on moment method solution is presented here. A modified Gauss-Newton method has been depicted here to address the nonlinear ill-posed problem. The stabilization term consists of a combination of three weighted discrete derivative operators instead of an Identity matrix as in the Levenberg-Marquardt method based algorithm developed by us. The present algorithm shows a marked improvement over the previous one in the quality of the reconstructed images from synthetic data under noisy condition.

Conformal Microwave Imaging for Breast Cancer Detection

An important feature of our Gauss–Newton iterative scheme for microwave breast image reconstruction is that only the heterogeneous target zone within the antenna array is represented using the finite-element method, while the surrounding homogeneous coupling medium is modeled with the boundary-element (BE) method. The interface between these two zones may be arbitrary in shape and position with...

Gauss–Newton reconstruction method for optical tomography using the finite element solution of the radiative transfer equation

The radiative transfer equation can be utilized in optical tomography in situations in which the more commonly applied diffusion approximation is not valid. In this paper, an image reconstruction method based on a frequency domain radiative transfer equation is developed. The approach is based on a total variation output regularized least squares method which is solved with a Gauss–Newton algor...

Convergence and Application of a Modified Iteratively Regularized Gauss-Newton Algorithm

We establish theoretical convergence results for an Iteratively Regularized Gauss Newton (IRGN) algorithm with a specific Tikhonov regularization. This Tikhnov regularization, which uses a seminorm generated by a linear operator, is motivated by mapping of the minimization variables to physical space which exposes the different scales of the parameters and therefore also suggests appropriate we...

Multiple Target Tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks Based on Sensor Grouping and Hybrid Iterative-Heuristic Optimization

A novel hybrid method for tracking multiple indistinguishable maneuvering targets using a wireless sensor network is introduced in this paper. The problem of tracking the location of targets is formulated as a Maximum Likelihood Estimation. We propose a hybrid optimization method, which consists of an iterative and a heuristic search method, for finding the location of targets simultaneously. T...

Large-Scale Non-Linear 3D Reconstruction Algorithms for Electrical Impedance Tomography of the Human Head

Non-linear image reconstruction methods are desirable for applications in electrical impedance tomography (EIT) such as brain or breast imaging where the assumptions of linearity are violated. We present a novel non-linear Newton-Krylov method for solving large-scale EIT inverse problems, which has the potential advantages of improved robustness and computational efficiency over previous method...
