SIRT3D_CUDA

This is a GPU implementation of the SIRT algorithm for 3D data sets. It takes projection data and an initial reconstruction as input, and returns the reconstruction after a specified number of SIRT iterations.

Supported geometries: all 3D geometries.

Configuration options

name

type

description

cfg.ProjectionDataId

required

The astra_mex_data3d ID of the projection data

cfg.ReconstructionDataId

required

The astra_mex_data3d ID of the reconstruction data. The content of this when starting SIRT3D_CUDA is used as the initial reconstruction.

cfg.option.SinogramMaskId

optional

If specified, the astra_mex_data3d ID of a projection-data-sized volume to be used as a mask. It should only have values 0.0 and 1.0. See the section on [Masks] for details.

cfg.option.ReconstructionMaskId

optional

If specified, the astra_mex_data3d ID of a volume-data-sized volume to be used as a mask. It should only have values 0.0 and 1.0. See the section on [Masks] for details.

cfg.option.MinConstraint

optional

If specified, all values below MinConstraint will be set to MinConstraint. This can be used to enforce non-negative reconstructions, for example.

cfg.option.MaxConstraint

optional

If specified, all values above MaxConstraint will be set to MaxConstraint.

cfg.option.GPUindex

optional

The index (zero-based) of the GPU to use. (default: 0)

cfg.option.DetectorSuperSampling

optional

For the forward projection, DetectorSuperSampling^2 rays will be used. This should only be used if your detector pixels are larger than the voxels in the reconstruction volume. (default: 1)

cfg.option.VoxelSuperSampling

optional

For the backward projection, VoxelSuperSampling^3 rays will be used. This should only be used if your voxels in the reconstruction volume are larger than the detector pixels. (default: 1)

Extra features

SIRT3D_CUDA supports astra.algorithm.get_res_norm() / astra_mex_algorithm(‘get_res_norm’) to get the 2-norm of the difference between the projection data and the projection of the reconstruction. (The square root of the sum of squares of differences.)
