Abstract

In this paper, a spatial location weighted gradient-based optimization scheme for reducing the computation burden and increasing the reconstruction precision is stated. The method applies to DC diffusion-based optical tomography, where otherwise the reconstruction suffers slow convergence. The inverse approach employs a weighted steepest descent method combined with a conjugate gradient method. A reverse differentiation method is used to efficiently derive the gradient. The reconstruction results confirm that the spatial location weighted optimization method offers a more efficient approach to the DC optical imaging problem than unweighted method does.
