18 Sparse-Land model for signals The concept: natural signals admit a faithful representation using only few columns (atoms) from a dedicated overcomplete dictionary. Natural dictionaries: Wavelets, Haar functions, Discrete Cosines, Fourier. Dictionaries tailored to the specific family of signals: obtained via a training process. s = E( f) α ν k 0 ε Number of non-zeros is small Residual is small s + ν = Dα D α f Ph.D. Talk, Apr. 01

Online learning from noisy data. Very nice results on geometric images under severe angular subsampling. Drawbacks: Data fidelity term in the sinogram domain. No reference to statistical model of the noise. Sparse coding thresholds not treated. Ph.D. Talk, Apr. 01
21 Application to CT reconstruction Our approach: 1. check data fidelity and perform sparse coding in the domain of noise-normalized raw data : { * * D,α, z} 1 z = arg min λ z ~ z + µ α + D,, z 0 1 α patch patch = arg min λ z ~ z + z patch ~ z = y + σ n ) + ( ~ * D α E ~ z T T = G + ~ D, D ( α) E E E Dα λz 1 patch = D 1 α E Solve for,α using K-SVD, but allow to use a different dictionary at restoration stage: D 1 ~ z D Ph.D. Talk, Apr. 01

44 Summary Adaptive methods can help improving CT reconstruction. FBP needs only a little help to allow truly local reconstruction. Once the raw data is variance-normalized, the sparsity-based denoising mends most of the damage done by the low-dose scan. When the smootheness parameter is swept, reconstruction algorithms supply more information about the image; it is easily extracted by a regression function using only the intensity values. Example-based training does not eopardize the image content (in the presented algorithms) and can be allowed for clinical use. Ph.D. Talk, Apr. 01
