Regularization Techniques for Tomography Problems

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingBook chapterEducation

Abstract

Inverse problems are mathematical problems that arise when our goal is to recover “interior” or “hidden” information from “outside”—or otherwise available—noisy data [3], [8], [67], [71]. Tomographic reconstruction is a classical example of an ill-posed inverse problem, and we have already seen that reconstructions are sensitive to measurement noise. Therefore, we cannot expect to compute satisfactory results by simply solving the system of linear equations—in the form of either a square system or a least-squares problem. In this chapter, we will introduce regularization techniques to incorporate prior information on the objects in order to stabilize the solutions with respect to measurement noise.
