A Parametrix Method in Integral Geometry
نویسنده
چکیده
The objective of reconstructive integral geometry is to recover a function from its integrals over a set of subvarieties. A parametrix is a method of reconstruction of a function from its integral data up to a smoothing operator. In the simplest case, a parametrix recovers a function with a jump singularity along a curve (surface) up to a continuous function, which can be quite informative in medical imaging. We provide an explicit construction for a wide class of acquisition geometries. The case of photo-acoustic geometry is of special interest.

Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin Method for Heat Conduction Problem in an Anisotropic Medium
Meshless methods based on the local Petrov-Galerkin approach are proposed for solution of steady and transient heat conduction problem in a continuously nonhomogeneous anisotropic medium. Fundamental solution of the governing partial differential equations and the Heaviside step function are used as the test functions in the local weak form. It is leading to derive local boundary integral equat...
متن کاملFast System Matrix Calculation in CT Iterative Reconstruction
Introduction: Iterative reconstruction techniques provide better image quality and have the potential for reconstructions with lower imaging dose than classical methods in computed tomography (CT). However, the computational speed is major concern for these iterative techniques. The system matrix calculation during the forward- and back projection is one of the most time- cons...
متن کاملA numerical solution of mixed Volterra Fredholm integral equations of Urysohn type on non-rectangular regions using meshless methods
In this paper, we propose a new numerical method for solution of Urysohn two dimensional mixed Volterra-Fredholm integral equations of the second kind on a non-rectangular domain. The method approximates the solution by the discrete collocation method based on inverse multiquadric radial basis functions (RBFs) constructed on a set of disordered data. The method is a meshless method, because it ...
متن کاملA Well-conditioned Integral Equation for Iterative Solution of Scattering Problems with a Variable Leontovitch Boundary Condition
The construction of a well-conditioned integral equation for iterative solution of scattering problems with a variable Leontovitch boundary condition is proposed. A suitable parametrix is obtained by using a new unknown and an approximation of the transparency condition. We prove the well-posedness of the equation for any wavenumber. Finally, some numerical comparisons with well-tried method pr...
متن کاملA probabilistic interpretation of the parametrix method
In this article, we introduce the parametrix method for constructions of fundamental solutions as a general method based on semigroups and difference of generators. This leads to a probabilistic interpretation of the parametrix method that are amenable to Monte Carlo simulation. We consider the explicit examples of continuous diffusions and jump driven stochastic differential equations with Höl...
