In this paper, we discuss sampling and reconstruction of signals in the weighted reproducing kernel space associated with an idempotent integral operator. We show that any signal in that space can be stably reconstructed from its weighted samples taken on a relatively-separated set with sufficiently small gap. We also develop an iterative reconstruction algorithm for the reconstruction of a signal from its weighted samples taken on a relatively-separated set with sufficiently small gap.

The inverse problem of Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT), especially for open EIT which involves less measurement, is a non-linear ill-posed problem. In this paper, a novel method based on Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is proposed to solve the open EIT inverse problem. This method combines a modified Newton-Raphson algorithm, a conductivity-based clustering algorithm, with an adaptive PSO algorithm to enhance optimal search capability and improve the quality of the reconstructed image. The results of numerical simulations show that the proposed method has a faster convergence to optimal solution and higher spatial resolution on a reconstructed image than a Newton-Raphson type algorithm.

A fast algorithm is proposed for the reconstruction of digital holograms that are recorded at high numerical aperture. The method directly evaluates the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld diffraction integral by use of a fast convolution algorithm. A shift parameter that accounts for the coordinate system's transverse displacement of the object plane and the hologram plane is introduced in a discrete representation of the diffraction kernel. Combination of the samplings reconstructed with different shift values yields diffraction-limited resolution over the full field of view. The algorithm is suitable for various applications such as holographic microscopy and metrology. Simulation and experimental results are presented. (c) 2006 Optical Society of America.

The authors discuss the role and performance of compact polarimetry in SAR interferometry. The considered SAR architecture transmits either a linearly polarised wave oriented at 45 degrees or a circularly polarised one, and receives at horizontal and vertical polarisation. Two polarimetric acquisitions are combined in an interferometric image, characterised by a polarimetric and interferometric (POLINSAR) covariance matrix. The expression of the covariance matrix for compact polarimetry is derived and the relationship between compact and full polarimetric covariance matrices is discussed. On the basis of symmetry properties of geophysical media, the authors propose a reconstruction algorithm of the full polarimetric information from a compact polarimetric dataset. The algorithm allows the assessment of compact POLINSAR and the comparison between the two compact configurations. The authors consider forested areas and compare the interferometric degree of coherence measured at different polarisations by compact polarimetry and full polarimetry. The study shows that the degree of coherence from a compact polarimetric architecture carries enough information for POLINSAR applications, such as forest parameters retrieval, if the symmetry properties are satisfied. Airborne data acquired by the DLR E-SAR sensor over the Traunstein forest are used to illustrate the results.

In this paper, we consider cracks with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We first derive an asymptotic expansion of the boundary perturbations that are due to the presence of a small crack. Based on this formula, we design a noniterative approach for locating a collection of small cracks. In order to do so, we construct a response matrix from the boundary measurements. The location and the length of the crack are estimated, respectively, from the projection onto the noise space and the first significant singular value of the response matrix. Indeed, the direction of the crack is estimated from the second singular vector. We then consider an extended crack with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We rigorously derive an asymptotic expansion for the boundary perturbations that are due to a shape deformation of the crack. To reconstruct an extended crack from many boundary measurements, we develop two methods for obtaining a good guess. Several numerical experiments show how the proposed techniques for imaging small cracks as well as those for obtaining good initial guesses toward reconstructing an extended crack behave.

Electron-holographic tomography (EHT), that is, the combination of off-axis electron holography with electron tomography, was successfully applied for the quantitative 3D mapping of electrostatic potentials at the nanoscale. Here we present the first software package (THOMAS) for semi-automated acquisition of holographic tilt series, a prerequisite for efficient data collection. Using THOMAS, the acquisition time for a holographic tilt series, consisting of object and reference holograms, is reduced by a factor of five on average, compared to the previous, completely manual approaches. Moreover, the existing software packages for retrieving amplitude and phase information from electron holograms have been extended, now including a one-step procedure for holographic tilt series reconstruction. Furthermore, a modified SIRT algorithm (WSIRT) was implemented for the quantitative 3D reconstruction of the electrostatic potential from the aligned phase tilt series. Finally, the application of EHT to a polystyrene latex sphere test-specimen and a pn-doped Ge 'needle'-shaped specimen are presented, illustrating the quantitative character of EHT. For both specimens the mean inner potential (MIP) values were accurately determined from the reconstructed 3D potential. For the Ge specimen, additionally the 'built-in' voltage across the pn junction of 0.5 V was obtained. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A prototype time-of-flight (TOF) PET scanner based on cerium-doped lanthanum bromide [LaBr3 (5% Ce)] has been developed. LaBr3 has a high light output, excellent energy resolution and fast timing properties that have been predicted to lead to good image quality. Intrinsic performance measurements of spatial resolution, sensitivity and scatter fraction demonstrate good conventional PET performance;the results agree with previous simulation studies. Phantom measurements show the excellent image quality achievable with the prototype system. Phantom measurements and corresponding simulations show a faster and more uniform convergence rate, as well as more uniform quantification, for TOF reconstruction of the data, which have 375 ps intrinsic timing resolution, compared to non-TOF images. Measurements and simulations of a hot and cold sphere phantom show that the 7% energy resolution helps to mitigate residual errors in the scatter estimate because a high energy threshold (>480 keV) can be used to restrict the amount of scatter accepted without a loss of true events. Preliminary results with incorporation of a model of detector blurring in the iterative reconstruction algorithm not only show improved contrast recovery but also point out the importance of an accurate resolution model of the tails of LaBr3's point spread function. The LaBr3 TOF-PET scanner demonstrated the impact of superior timing and energy resolutions on image quality.

This paper is devoted to mathematical modeling in photoacoustic imaging of small absorbers. We propose a new method for reconstructing small absorbing regions inside a bounded domain from boundary measurements of the induced acoustic signal. We also show the focusing property of the back-propagated acoustic signal. Indeed, we provide two different methods for locating a targeted optical absorber from boundary measurements of the induced acoustic signal. The first method consists of a MUltiple SIgnal Classification (MUSIC)-type algorithm and the second one uses a multifrequency approach. We also show results of computational experiments to demonstrate efficiency of the algorithms.

Bioluminescence tomography (BLT) is an inverse source problem that localizes and quantifies bioluminescent probe distribution in 3-D. The generic BLT model is ill-posed, leading to nonunique solutions and aberrant reconstruction in the presence of measurement noise and optical parameter mismatches. In this paper, we introduce the knowledge of the number of bioluminescence sources to stabilize the BLT problem. Based on this regularized BLT model, we develop a differential evolution-based reconstruction algorithm to determine the source locations and strengths accurately and reliably. Then, we evaluate this novel approach in numerical, phantom, and mouse studies.

This contribution describes an alternative approach to generating stereoscopic content of sports scenes from regular broadcast cameras without the need for special stereo rigs. This is achieved by using 3D reconstruction previously developed for applications in postmatch analysis. The reconstruction method requires at least four or five cameras and computes the 3D information automatically. Two different target formats for the delivery of stereoscopic 3D TV are discussed: the display-independent layered depth video format and conventional binocular stereo. The results viewed on two different displays demonstrate the potential of the method as an alternative production method for stereoscopic 3D content.
