چکیده
In this chapter we present an algebraic theory of patterns which can be applied in discrete tomography for any dimension. We use that the difference of two such patterns yields a configuration with vanishing line sums. We show by introducing generating polynomials and applying elementary properties of polyno-mials that such so-called switching configurations form a linear space. We give a basis of this linear space in terms of the so-called switching atom, the smallest non-trivial switching configuration. We do so both in case that the material does not absorb light and absorbs light homogeneously. In the former case we also show that a configuration can be constructed with the same line sums as the original and with entries of about the same size, and we provide a formula for the number of linear dependencies between the line sums. In the final section we deal with the case that the transmitted light does not follow straight lines.

DISCRETE TOMOGRAPHY AND FUZZY INTEGER PROGRAMMING
We study the problem of reconstructing binary images from four projections data in a fuzzy environment. Given the uncertainly projections,w e want to find a binary image that respects as best as possible these projections. We provide an iterative algorithm based on fuzzy integer programming and linear membership functions.
متن کاملApplications of Electrical Impedance Tomography in Neurology
Introduction: Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive technique utilized in various medical applications, including brain imaging and other neurological diseases. Recognizing the physiological and anatomical characteristics of organs based on their electrical properties is one of the main applications of EIT, as each variety of tissue structure has its own electrical characteris...
متن کاملBenford Distribution and its Applications
This papers considers the Benford distribution as one the interesting rules of probability theory. This rule shows that, despite of usual underestanding about the uniform distribution of digites for lieing on different positions in numbers, digits are distributed according to an non uniform distributions for numbers araising from many natural phonemena. Benford distribution proposes ...
متن کاملClinical Applications of Optical Coherence Tomography in Ophthalmology
Assessment of the peripapillary nerve fiber layer and macular thickness can be determined in ophthalmology using optical coherence tomography (OCT). Decreased nerve fiber layer thickness and macular ganglion cell thickness in optic nerve ischemia have been correlated with visual field loss. OCT allows deep optic nerve head evaluation which helps understand pathophysiology of diseases. Furtherm...
