First and second order Rayleigh and Raman scatter is a common problem when fitting Parallel Factor Analysis (PARAFAC) to fluorescence excitationemission data (EEM). The scatter does not contain any relevant chemical information and does not conform to the low-rank trilinear model. The scatter complicates the analysis instead and contributes to model inadequacy. As such, scatter can be considere...

The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate the hybrid scatter correction algorithm (HSC) for CT imaging. Therefore, two established ways to perform scatter correction, i.e. physical scatter correction based on Monte Carlo simulations and a convolution-based scatter correction algorithm, were combined in order to perform an object-dependent, fast and accurate scatter correction. Based...

The evolutionary approach called scatter search originated from strategies for creating composite decision rules and surrogate constraints. Recent studies demonstrate the practical advantages of this approach for solving a diverse array of optimisation problems from both classical and real world settings. Scatter search cont rasts with other evolutionary procedures, such as genetic algorithms, ...

An important distinction of diffusion models is that they only model multiple scattering. We generally distinguish between scatter events at different path depths: Zero-scatter events are photons that enter a surface and immediately reach an exit point without having scattered in the medium itself. Single scatter events do the same with a single interaction inside the volume. Multiple scatter e...

Accurate scatter correction is one of the major problems facing quantitative 3D PET and many methods have been developed for the purpose of reducing the resultant degradation of image contrast and loss of quantitative accuracy. A new scatter correction method called Statistical Reconstruction-Based Scatter Correction (SRBSC) is proposed in this paper and evaluated using Monte Carlo simulations,...
