The PICCS-based image reconstruction takes advantage of the compressed sensing theory, a prior image and an optimization algorithm to improve the image quality of CT reconstructions.To evaluate the performance of the proposed method, three optimization algorithms and three prior images are employed and compared in terms of reconstruction accuracy and noise characteristics of the reconstructed images in each energy bin.The experimental simulation results show that the image xbins^W is the best as the prior image in general with respect to the three optimization algorithms; and the SPS algorithm offers the best performance for the simulated phantom with respect to the three prior images. Compared with filtered back-projection(FBP), the PICCS via the SPS algorithm and xbins^W as the prior image can offer the noise reduction in the reconstructed images up to 80. 46%, 82. 51%, 88. 08% in each energy bin,respectively. M eanwhile, the root-mean-squared error in each energy bin is decreased by 15. 02%, 18. 15%, 34. 11% and the correlation coefficient is increased by 9. 98%, 11. 38%,15. 94%, respectively.展开更多

Compared to designs currently used in practice, all compounds in the designs considered are comparable within each microplate in spite of the existence of row and column effects. The designs considered in this paper also have the maximum number of compounds arranged in each microplate. Two statistical methods are used to choose leading compounds in the designs considered. These two methods take full advantages of effect sparsity in primary screening. Simulation studies are carried out to compare the two statistical methods with two ad hoc methods in selecting active compounds.
