چکیده

Abstract – In this paper, an image reconstruction algorithm for an electrical capacitance tomography (ECT) system is presented. It is based on an artificial neural network (ANN) Four kinds of grid in the same pipe and with different resolutions are discussed. The sensitivity of a pixel in each grid has been calculated and analyzed. The trained neural network has been applied to experimental data for image reconstruction. Through the cases investigated, a practical image reconstruction strategy for a fluidized bed is suggested.

.session D3: Neural networks OIL HEIGHT DETERMINATION FROM CAPACITANCE TOMOGRAPHY MEASUREMENTS USING NEURAL NETWORK

This paper presents a "direct" method to gas-oil interface level determination using an artificial neural network approach based on Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) measurements. "Direct" here means that the gas-oil interface levels are obtained directly from the ECT measurements without recourse to image reconstruction. The preliminary work models a separation tank that i~ filled with g...

The Application of Multi-Layer Artificial Neural Networks in Speckle Reduction (Methodology)

Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) uses the spatial and temporal coherence properties of optical waves backscattered from a tissue sample to form an image. An inherent characteristic of coherent imaging is the presence of speckle noise. In this study we use a new ensemble framework which is a combination of several Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) neural networks to denoise OCT images. The noise is...

An Automated MR Image Segmentation System Using Multi-layer Perceptron Neural Network

Background: Brain tissue segmentation for delineation of 3D anatomical structures from magnetic resonance (MR) images can be used for neuro-degenerative disorders, characterizing morphological differences between subjects based on volumetric analysis of gray matter (GM), white matter (WM) and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but only if the obtained segmentation results are correct. Due to image arti...

An Oil Fraction Neural Sensor Developed Using Electrical capacitance Tomography Sensor Data

This paper presents novel research on the development of a generic intelligent oil fraction sensor based on Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) data. An artificial Neural Network (ANN) has been employed as the intelligent system to sense and estimate oil fractions from the cross-sections of two-component flows comprising oil and gas in a pipeline. Previous works only focused on estimating t...

Diagnosis of brain tumor using image processing and determination of its type with RVM neural networks

Typically, the diagnosis of a tumor is done through surgical sampling, which is more precise with existing methods. The difference is that this is an aggressive, time consuming and expensive way. In the statistical method, due to the complexity of the brain tissues and the similarity between the cancerous cells and the natural tissues, even a radiologist or an expert physician may also be in er...
