Planar and SPECT Monte Carlo acceleration using a variance reduction technique in I131 imaging
Background: Various variance reduction techniques such as forced detection (FD) have been implemented in Monte Carlo (MC) simulation of nuclear medicine in an effort to decrease the simulation time while keeping accuracy. However most of these techniques still result in very long MC simulation times for being implemented into routine use. Materials and Methods: Convolution-based force...
متن کاملConstruction of the RSS V3.2 Lower-Tropospheric Temperature Dataset from the MSU and AMSU Microwave Sounders
Measurements made by microwave sounding instruments provide a multidecadal record of atmospheric temperature in several thick atmospheric layers. Satellite measurements began in late 1978 with the launch of the first Microwave Sounding Unit (MSU) and have continued to the present via the use of measurements from the follow-on series of instruments, the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU). T...
متن کاملSimulation of Temperature Distribution in a Continuous Tunnel Reheat Furnace Using the Monte Carlo Method
A mathematical model of a continuous reheating furnace has been developed to identify the design and operating parameters that significantly affect furnace performance. In this study, the furnace is modeled 3 dimensionally and theMonte Carlomethod is used to find the overall absorption factor. The overall absorption factor is then used to calculate the energy balance for furnace walls, the gas,...
متن کاملUncertainty on fringe projection technique: a Monte-Carlo-based approach
6 Error estimation on optical full field techniques (OFFT) is millstone in the diffusion of OFFT. 7 The present work describes a generic way to estimate overall error in fringe projection, either 8 due to random sources (phase error, basically related to the quality of the camera and of the 9 fringe extraction algorithm) or the bias (calibration errors). Here, a high level calibration 10 proced...
متن کاملA Monte-Carlo technique for weight estimation in satellite geodesy
Precise orbit determination, and satellite-geodetic applications such as gravity field modelling or satellite altimetry, rely on different observation types and groups that have to be processed in a common parameter estimation scheme. Naturally, the choice of the relative weights for these data sets as well as for added prior information is of importance for obtaining reliable estimates of the ...
