Tumor localization using diffuse optical tomography and linearly constrained minimum variance beamforming.
We present a tumor localization method for diffuse optical tomography using linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV) beamforming. Beamforming is a spatial filtering technique where signals from certain directions can be enhanced while noise and interference from other directions are suppressed. In our method, we tessellate the domain into small voxels and regard each voxel as a possible pos...
متن کاملOn linearly constrained minimum variance beamforming
Beamforming is a widely used technique for source localization in signal processing and neuroimaging. A number of vector-beamformers have been introduced to localize neuronal activity by using magnetoencephalography (MEG) data in the literature. However, the existing theoretical analyses on these beamformers have been limited to simple cases, where no more than two sources are allowed in the as...
متن کاملMagnetic source localization via linearly constrained minimum variance spatial filtering
Spatial filtering has a long history of successful application in radar and sonar problems (e.g. [1,2]). The process of spatial filtering is also known as beamforming, since early spatial filters were designed to form pencil beams for either receiving or transmitting signals. More recently, spatial filtering has been applied to EEG and MEG [3–6, 8] to localize intracranial sources of electrical...
متن کاملLinearly Constrained Minimum Variance Beamforming with Quadratic Pattern Constraints for Spatially Spread Sources
Antenna arrays that receive emissions from spatially spread sources require beamformers with wider beamwidths than point source beamformers. The framework of linearly constrained minimum variance beamforming with quadratic pattern constraints (LCMV-QPC) is used to develop beamformers with a specified main beamwidth and sidelobe levels. The problem is formulated by imposing a set of inequality c...
متن کاملA Novel Frequency Domain Linearly Constrained Minimum Variance Filter for Speech Enhancement
A reliable speech enhancement method is important for speech applications as a pre-processing step to improve their overall performance. In this paper, we propose a novel frequency domain method for single channel speech enhancement. Conventional frequency domain methods usually neglect the correlation between neighboring time-frequency components of the signals. In the proposed method, we take...
