Quasi-Maximum Likelihood Blind Deconvolution of Images Acquired Through Scattering Media
We address the problem of restoration of images obtained through a scattering medium. We present an efficient quasimaximum likelihood blind deconvolution approach based on the fas...

Modelling Noise-Induced Fibre-Orientation Error in Diffusion-Tensor MRI
Diffusion-Tensor MRI can be used to measure fibre orientation within the brain. Several studies have proposed methods to reconstruct known white matter fibre tracts in the brain. ...

A Hierarchical Algorithm for Fast Backprojection in Helical Cone-Beam Tomography
Existing algorithms for exact helical cone beam (HCB) tomographic reconstruction involve a 3-D backprojection step, which dominates the the computational cost of the algorithm. We...

A Novel Closed Form Solution for Ultrasound Calibration
This paper describes a new robust method for calibration of ultrasound probe (2D/3D). Prior to calibration, a position sensor is attached to the probe for tagging each image/volum...
