Abstract

In a previous study, we developed the non-iterative image reconstruction based on diffusion equation. Within this research, we applied the same non-iterative algorithm scheme using radiative transfer equation. Basically, the non-iterative image reconstruction is a development of model based image reconstruction that implemented truncated singular value decomposition and L-curve analysis to solve the ill-posed problem. This algorithm reduces the computation time to reconstruct the cross-sectional area. As part of continuous development on agricultural application, optical tomography based quality control is offered. An experiment was conducted on potato to evaluate these two non-iterative algorithms. The object was illuminated by the near infrared source from 8 positions on the object boundary. In this experiment, we vary the position and the amount of epoxy on the object then we analyze the residual value between measurement and reconstructed boundary data. The reconstructions were performed in continuous-wave domain. Furthermore, we compared the residual value from diffuse optical tomography using diffusion equation and radiative transfer equation. The result of this study indicates that these algorithms are promising to detect the presence of epoxy on potato which is useful for quality control of agricultural products.
