Reconstruction and segmentation from sparse sequential X-ray measurements of wood logs

“…A common limitation in such configurations is that a full-scale rotational computed 2 SEBASTIAN SPRINGER, ET AL. tomography (CT) system [44] may not be available due to cost limitations, but low-cost continual scanning modes are preferred, potentially with multiple sensordetector pairs and slower rotational speed, if any [40]. In the case of a moving object on a conveyor belt, this leads to a sequential scanning geometry, in which only a few measurements per two-dimensional slice can be obtained.…”
