Abstract
Binary tomography focuses on the problem of reconstructing homogeneous objects from a small number of their projections. In many applications, incomplete projection data holds insufficient information for the correct reconstruction of the original object. In this paper, we provide an optimization based method to select the “most informative” projection set, using information of global uncertainty. Beside the projection data we assume no further knowledge of the image to be reconstructed. Still, we achieve approximately as accurate reconstruction results, as it is possible to gain with a former method that uses blueprint images to find the optimal set of projections. We give experimental results for validating our approach on artificial images of various structures.
