Sinogram recovery for sparse angle tomography using a sinusoidal Hough transform
The reported work introduces the mathematical foundations for an engineering solution of hard-field tomography from limited data by using pattern recognition algorithms. The improvement in the pixel precision of reconstructed images allowed its hardware implementation (DOI: 10.1109/JSEN.2012.2224654 ), and is now part of a prototype system capable of human gait analysis (EPSRC-funded iMAGiMAT's demonstrator: http://www.reuters.com/video/2012/10/08/magic-carpet-a-hi-tech-safety-net-for-el?videoId=238243515&videoChannel=5), which is in preparation for a spin-off (contact details available). Constantino was awarded the Tom Dyakowski Tomography Student Prize for this work. The publication is in the leading IoP journal on measurement, instrumentation and sensing.
