Geometrical rectification for images from a mobile large container inspection system.

摘要

The mobile large container inspection system (MLCIS) is a more flexible X-ray radiographic system than conventional fixed systems. Ideally, the X-ray detectors should be arranged along an arc with the source at the center. However, detectors of the MLCIS are arranged in an L-shaped frame and result in a factual image which is distorted compared with the ideal image. We propose a geometrical rectification algorithm to convert the factual image to the ideal image. We choose the dimension ratios of identical objects shown on the factual and processed images with our algorithm as a measure, and the results is desirable.
