tm_backproject_unfiltered — 2D tomography op

Data kinds: imageimage

Call: fullseye.apply(img, "tm_backproject_unfiltered", a=0.5, b=0.5) (the 2-D model is one image plus two scalar knobs a,b∈[0,1])

Usage

Plain (UN-filtered) back-projection of the input sinogram -- the classic blurry reconstruction. No ramp filter is applied, so high frequencies are suppressed and every point spreads a 1/r blur: this deliberately shows why FBP's filter is needed. `a/b are unused (this is the fixed naive baseline). Uses skimage.transform.iradon with filter_name=None` when available, else the NumPy plain back-projection. Output refit to HxW.
