Probabilistic Reconstruction of hv-convex Polyominoes from Noisy Projection Data

Abstract

In this paper the well-known problem of reconstructing hv-convex polyominoes is considered from a set of noisy data. Differently from the usual approach of Binary Tomography, this leads to a probabilistic evaluation in the reconstruction algorithm, where different pixels assume different probabilities to be part of the reconstructed image. An iterative algorithm is then applied, which, starting from a random choice, leads to an explicit reconstruction matching the noisy data.
