Accurate reconstruction of the object from sparse-view sampling data is an appealing issue for ultrasound diffraction tomography (UDT). In this paper, we present a reconstruction method based on compressed sensing framework for sparse-view UDT. Due to the piecewise uniform characteristics of anatomy structures, the total variation is introduced into the cost function to find a more faithful sparse representation of the object. The inverse problem of UDT is iteratively resolved by conjugate gradient with nonuniform fast Fourier transform. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method that the main characteristics of the object can be properly presented with only 16 views. Compared to interpolation and multiband method, the proposed method can provide higher resolution and lower artifacts with the same view number. The robustness to noise and the computation complexity are also discussed.

Irregular sampled gravity data are often interpolated into regular grid data for convenience of data processing and interpretation. The compressed sensing theory provides a signal reconstruction method that can recover a sparse signal from far fewer samples. We have introduced a gravity data reconstruction method based on the nonequispaced Fourier transform (NFT) in the framework of compressed sensing theory. We have developed a sparsity analysis and a reconstruction algorithm with an iterative cooling thresholding method and applied to the gravity data of the Bishop model. For 2D data reconstruction, we use two methods to build the weighting factors: the Gaussian function and the Voronoi method. Both have good reconstruction results from the 2D data tests. The 2D reconstruction tests from different sampling rates and comparison with the minimum curvature and the kriging methods indicate that the reconstruction method based on the NFT has a good reconstruction result even with few sampling data.

This paper focuses on processing low oversampling echo data of staggered synthetic aperture radar (SAR). In staggered mode, the non-uniformly sampling and irregular loss of echo data cause azimuth ambiguity which severely degrades the imaging quality. To solve this problem, we propose a compressed sensing (CS) method in which the non-uniform fast Fourier transform (NUFFT) technique is adopted to obtain uniform azimuth spectrum, and the fast iterative shrinkage thresholding algorithm (FISTA) is utilized to efficiently reconstruct the ambiguity-free image from in-complete echo data. Simulation results demonstrate the proposed method can effectively suppress the azimuth ambiguity in the vicinity of targets.

Computing the 1-D Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) using the conventional six-step FFT algorithm on parallel computers requires intensive all-to-all communication due to the necessity of matrix transpose in three steps. This all-to-all communication is a limiting factor in improving the performance of FFT in its parallel implementations. In this paper, we present two parallel algorithms for implementing the 1-D FFT without all-to-all communication between processors, at the expense of increased inner-processor computation as compared to the conventional six-step FFT algorithm. Our analysis reveals the advantage of these two algorithms over the six-step FFT algorithm in parallel systems where the cost of inter-processor communication outweighs the cost of inner-processor computation. As a case study, we choose a 32-node Beowulf cluster with fast processors (running at 2 GHz) but relatively slow inter-processor communication (over a 100 Mbit/s switch). Simulation results on this cluster demonstrate that the proposed no-communication FFT algorithms can achieve a speedup ranging from 1.1 to 1.5 over the six-step FFT algorithm.

A novel decision-directed Modified Constant Modulus Algorithm (DD-MCMA) was proposed firstly. Then a constellation matched error (CME) function was added to the cost function of DD-MCMA and CME-DD-MCMA algorithm was presented. Furthermore, we improve the CME-DD-MCMA by replacing the fixed step with variable step size, that is VSS-CME-DD-MCMA algorithm. The simulation results show that the proposed new blind equalization algorithms can tremendously accelerate the convergence speed and achieve lower residual inter-symbol interference (ISI) than MCMA, and among the three proposed algorithms, VSS-CME-DD-MCMA has the fastest convergence speed and the lowest residual ISI, but it has the largest computation complexity.

Background: Image reconstruction of magnetic induction tomography (MIT) is a typical ill-posed inverse problem, which means that the measurements are always far from enough. Thus, MIT image reconstruction results using conventional algorithms such as linear back projection and Landweber often suffer from limitations such as low resolution and blurred edges. Methods: In this paper, based on the recent finite rate of innovation (FRI) framework, a novel image reconstruction method with MIT system is presented. Results: This is achieved through modeling and sampling the MIT signals in FRI framework, resulting in a few new measurements, namely, fourier coefficients. Because each new measurement contains all the pixel position and conductivity information of the dense phase medium, the illposed inverse problem can be improved, by rebuilding the MIT measurement equation with the measurement voltage and the new measurements. Finally, a sparsity-based signal reconstruction algorithm is presented to reconstruct the original MIT image signal, by solving this new measurement equation. Conclusion: Experiments show that the proposed method has better indicators such as image error and correlation coefficient. Therefore, it is a kind of MIT image reconstruction method with high accuracy.

For low-power wireless systems, transmission data volume is a key property, which influences the energy cost and time delay of transmission. In this paper, we introduce compressive sensing to propose a compressed sampling and collaborative reconstruction framework, which enables real-time direction of arrival estimation for wireless sensor array network. In sampling part, random compressed sampling and 1-bit sampling are utilized to reduce sample data volume while making little extra requirement for hardware. In reconstruction part, collaborative reconstruction method is proposed by exploiting similar sparsity structure of acoustic signal from nodes in the same array. Simulation results show that proposed framework can reach similar performances as conventional DoA methods while requiring less than 15% of transmission bandwidth. Also the proposed framework is compared with some data compression algorithms. While simulation results show framework’s superior performance, field experiment data from a prototype system is presented to validate the results.

AbstractIn this paper we consider the inverse problem of simultaneously reconstructing the interface where the jump of the conductivity occurs and the Robin parameter for a transmission problem with piecewise constant conductivity and Robin-type transmission conditions on the interface. We propose a reconstruction method based on a shape optimization approach and compare the results obtained using two different types of shape functionals. The reformulation of the shape optimization problem as a suitable saddle point problem allows us to obtain the optimality conditions by using differentiability properties of the min-sup combined with a function space parameterization technique. The reconstruction is then performed by means of an iterative algorithm based on a conjugate shape gradient method combined with a level set approach. To conclude we give and discuss several numerical examples.
