Measuring system response matrix (SRM) by Monte Carlo method is time and resource consuming, even with high performance computer nodes. In this paper, we exploited symmetry properties available to drastically reduce the complexity in computing SRM of panel PET, which has two parallel panel detectors. By extending the original system and simulating 4 voxels every slice parallel to the PET detector,...
The resolution measurement of 3D reconstructed density map in single particle reconstruction is an important and still an open problem. In this paper, we propose a new protocol to measure the resolution just from the reconstructed density map. This approach estimates spectral signal-to-noise ratio (SSNR) of 3D reconstructed map by computing the ratio of signal power to noise power in frequency domain...
In recent years, panel PET is an interesting field in medical imaging. But the major obstacle of panel PET is the limited view problem. Images reconstructed by traditional algorithms will suffer serious artifacts. Time-of-flight (TOF) information can be incorporated into the image reconstruction to remove the artifacts. However, the best system timing resolution available in current commercial PET...
Recently, there is growing interest in directly digitizing the scintillation pulses in PET detectors. With digital pulse samples, in principle one can apply nontrivial signal analysis software algorithms to either yield better detection performance or more flexibility in detector design. Previously, we have proposed the MVT method for direct scintillation pulse sampling and developed several kinds...
SIFT features have been found to be effective in describing image textures. Because SIFT features have some great characteristics, such as translation invariance, zooming in and out invariance, spin invariance and affine invariance, etc, so the image retrieval precision is satisfactory usually. However, in Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR), there are so many SIFT feature points extracted from an...
White-RGB (WRGB) color filter array (CFA)-based CMOS sensor is a new and popular technique to improve the image quality directly with a higher sensitivity White (W) filter. Considering there is no color information in the pixel assigned to W, color separation from W raw data is necessary. We propose a color separation method based on a novel physicallike virtual color filters model for the WRGB CFA-based...
To achieve denser 3D ear model from less controlled 2D image, we explore a 3D Ear Morphable Model (3DEMM) for 3D ear reconstruction using a single 2D ear image. Considering the unique structure of ear, we propose a novel dense corresponding method. The proposed method can overcome the shortcoming of optical flow based method and achieve pixel level dense correspondences based on physiological features...
