Restoration of optical coherence tomography images using stochastic methodsMezgebo, Biniyam Kahsay 12 January 2016 (has links)
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a rapidly growing imaging modality that produces high resolution three dimensional images that can be applied to different medical and industrial applications . Obtaining higher depth of imaging and higher imaging quality are important goals in OCT systems. One of the main factors that affects the penetration depth and imaging quality of OCT systems is the presence of noise. The depth-scan photocurrent of time domain (TD) OCT system is degraded by a class of correlated and signal dependent noise. The joint probability density function of the depth-scan photocurrent can be considered as Gaussian random process that is completely characterized by its second order statistics. Both the mean and the covariance functions of the depth-scan photocurrent are functions of the depth variant axial reflectance of the object. We present a stable and computationally efficient OCT image restoration technique to obtain the maximum likelihood estimates of the axial reflectance of the object and to estimate the electrical noise variance. / February 2016

Mixed Interface Problems of Thermoelastic Pseudo-OscillationsJentsch, L., Natroshvili, D., Sigua, I. 30 October 1998 (has links) (PDF)
Three-dimensional basic and mixed interface problems of the mathematical
theory of thermoelastic pseudo-oscillations are considered for piecewise homogeneous
anisotropic bodies. Applying the method of boundary potentials and the theory of
pseudodifferential equations existence and uniqueness theorems of solutions are proved
in the space of regular functions C^(k+ alpha) and in the Bessel-potential (H^(s)_(p))
and Besov (B^(s)_(p,q)) spaces. In addition to the classical regularity results
for solutions to the basic interface problems, it is shown that in the mixed interface
problems the displacement vector and the temperature are Hölder continuous with
exponent 0<alpha<1/2.

Interaction between Thermoelastic and Scalar Oscillation Fields (general anisotropic case)Jentsch, L., Natroshvili, D 30 October 1998 (has links) (PDF)
Three-dimensional mathematical problems of the interaction between thermoelastic
and scalar oscillation fields are considered in a general anisotropic case. An elastic
structure is assumed to be a bounded homogeneous anisortopic body occupying domain
$\Omega^+\sub\R^3$ , where the thermoelastic field is defined, while in the
physically anisotropic unbounded exterior domain $\Omega^-=\R^3\\ \overline{\Omega^+}$
there is defined the scalar field. These two fields
satisfy the differential equations of steady state oscillations in the corresponding
domains along with the transmission conditions of special type on the interface
$\delta\Omega^{+-}$. Uniqueness and existence theorems, for the non-resonance case, are proved
by the reduction of the original interface problems to equivalent systems of boundary
pseudodifferential equations ($\Psi DEs$) . The invertibility of the corresponding
matrix pseudodifferential operators ($\Psi DO$) in appropriate functional spaces is
shown on the basis of generalized Sommerfeld-Kupradze type thermoradiation conditions
for anisotropic bodies. In the resonance case, the co-kernels of the $\Psi DOs$ are
analysed and the efficent conditions of solvability of the transmission problems
are established.

Thermoelastic Oscillations of Anisotropic BodiesJentsch, L., Natroshvili, D. 30 October 1998 (has links) (PDF)
The generalized radiation conditions at infinity of Sommerfeld-Kupradze type are established in the theory of thermoelasticity of anisotropic bodies. Applying the potential method and the theory of pseudodifferential equations on manifolds the uniqueness and existence theorems of solutions to the basic three-dimensional exterior boundary value problems are proved and representation formulas of solutions by potential type integrals are obtained.

Partitionierung von Finite-Elemente-NetzenReichel, U. 30 October 1998 (has links) (PDF)
The realization of the finite element method on parallel computers
is usually based on a domain decomposition approach. This paper is
concerned with the problem of finding an optimal decomposition and an
appropriate mapping of the subdomains to the processors. The quality
of this partitioning is measured in several metrics but it is also
expressed in the computing time for solving specific systems of
finite element equations.
The software environment is first described. In particular, the data
structure and the accumulation algorithm are introduced. Then
several partitioning algorithms are compared. Spectral bisection was
used with different modifications including Kernighan-Lin refinement,
post-processing techniques and terminal propagation. The final
recommendations should give good decompositions for all finite
element codes which are based on principles similar to ours.
The paper is a shortened English version of Preprint SFB393/96-18
(Uwe Reichel: Partitionierung von Finite-Elemente-Netzen), SFB 393,
TU Chemnitz-Zwickau, December 1996. To be selfcontained, some material
of Preprint SPC95_5 (see below) is included. The paper appeared as
Preprint SFB393/96-18a, SFB 393, TU Chemnitz-Zwickau, January 1997.

Parallel solution of finite element equation systems: efficient inter-processor communicationApel, T., Haase, G., Meyer, A., Pester, M. 30 October 1998 (has links) (PDF)
This paper deals with the application of domain decomposition methods for the parallel solution of boundary value problems for partial differential equations over a domain $Omegabset R^d$, $d=2,3$. The attention is focused on the conception of efficient communication routines for the data exchange which is necessary for example in the preconditioned cg-algorithm for solving the resulting system of algebraic equations. The paper describes the data structure, different algorithms, and computational tests.
