Abstract class for a general system matrix \(H:\mathbb{U} \to \mathbb{V}\) which takes in an object \(f \in \mathbb{U}\) and maps it to a corresponding image \(g \in \mathbb{V}\) that would be produced by the imaging system. A system matrix consists of sequences of object-to-object and image-to-image transforms that model various characteristics of the imaging system, such as attenuation and blurring.

Abstract class for a general system matrix \(H:\mathbb{U} \to \mathbb{V}\) which takes in an object \(f \in \mathbb{U}\) and maps it to a corresponding image \(g \in \mathbb{V}\) that would be produced by the imaging system. A system matrix consists of sequences of object-to-object and image-to-image transforms that model various characteristics of the imaging system, such as attenuation and blurring. While the class implements the operator \(H:\mathbb{U} \to \mathbb{V}\) through the
forward
method, it also implements \(H^T:\mathbb{V} \to \mathbb{U}\) through the backward method, required during iterative reconstruction algorithms such as OSEM.- Parameters:
obj2obj_transforms (Sequence[Transform]) – Sequence of object mappings that occur before forward projection.
im2im_transforms (Sequence[Transform]) – Sequence of image mappings that occur after forward projection.
object_meta (ObjectMeta) – Object metadata.
image_meta (ImageMeta) – Image metadata.
- abstract forward(object, **kwargs)[source]#
Implements forward projection \(Hf\) on an object \(f\).
- Parameters:
object (torch.tensor[batch_size, Lx, Ly, Lz]) – The object to be forward projected
angle_subset (list, optional) – Only uses a subset of angles (i.e. only certain values of \(j\) in formula above) when back projecting. Useful for ordered-subset reconstructions. Defaults to None, which assumes all angles are used.
- Returns:
Forward projected image where Ltheta is specified by self.image_meta and angle_subset.
- Return type:
torch.tensor[batch_size, Ltheta, Lx, Lz]
- abstract backward(image, angle_subset=None, return_norm_constant=False)[source]#
Implements back projection \(H^T g\) on an image \(g\).
- Parameters:
image (torch.Tensor) – image which is to be back projected
angle_subset (list, optional) – Only uses a subset of angles (i.e. only certain values of \(j\) in formula above) when back projecting. Useful for ordered-subset reconstructions. Defaults to None, which assumes all angles are used.
return_norm_constant (bool) – Whether or not to return \(1/\sum_j H_{ij}\) along with back projection. Defaults to ‘False’.
- Returns:
the object obtained from back projection.
- Return type:
torch.tensor[batch_size, Lr, Lr, Lz]
