MIMS Workshop on
New Directions in Tomographic Image Reconstruction
30 June-1 July 2008
This workshop is part of the
MIMS
New Directions series of workshops
taking place in MIMS throughout 2008.
Tomographic image reconstruction, being a highly active research area stimulated by a number of real-life applications, naturally employs scientists with various backgrounds ranging from physics and engineering to computer science and mathematics. However, the variety of applications has led to a high degree of specialisation within each niche, possibly preventing innovations to be sufficiently disseminated. This workshop aims to provide a platform for interdisciplinary exchange of ideas and techniques developed by different communities leading to the unveiling of new directions in the field and hopefully triggering future collaborations.
Our intended audience is wide, however we intend to keep a slight bias towards mathematical yet practical aspects of imaging, gathering specialists in inverse problems, numerical analysis as well as practitioners to discuss topics such as sufficiency of data, stability of reconstructions, x-ray scattering correction and inversion, algebraic reconstruction methods, and image post-processing to name a few.
The workshop is organized in collaboration with School of Materials and is funded partly by MIMS and EPSRC.
