Titel: A Gauss-Markov-Potts prior model for images in Bayesian Computed Tomography

Sammanfattning: In many inverse problems in imaging systems and in particular in image reconstruction in Computed Tomography (CT), we may know that the object under the test is composed of a finite number of materials, meaning that, the images to be reconstructed are composed of a finite number of homogeneous compact regions. To account for this prior knowledge, we propose a family of Gauss- Markov fields with hidden region labels field modeled by the Potts Markov field. The marginal distribution of such models are the Gaussian mixture models which have been appropriately used in classification methods.

We use then these prior models in a Bayesian inference framework for imaging inverse problems which give us the possibility to jointly reconstruct the images and segment them in an optimal way. In this talk, first these prior models are presented in details, then appropriate MCMC or variational Bayesian methods are used to compute the mean posterior estimators.

Finally some results are presented to show the efficiency of the proposed methods for different imaging inverse problems, and in particular, in CT with limited angle and number of projections.
