Advances in Discrete Tomography and Its Applications

"Advances in Discrete Tomography and its Applications" is a unified presentation of new methods, algorithms, and select applications that are the foundations of multidimensional image construction and reconstruction. The self-contained survey chapters, written by leading mathematicians, engineers, and computer scientists, present cutting-edge research and results in the field. §§Three main areas are covered: theoretical results, algorithms, and practical applications. Following an historical and introductory overview of the field, the book explores the various mathematical and computational problems of discrete tomography with an emphasis on new applications. §§Topics and Features: historical overview and summary chapter uniqueness and complexity in discrete tomography 3-D tomographic reconstruction from radiographic data symbolic projections applications to neutron tomography§§Professionals, researchers, practitioners, and students in mathematics, computer imaging, biomedical imaging, computer engineering, and image processing will find the book to be a useful guide and reference to state-of-the-art research, methods, and applications.
