SIMPLIFIED METHOD FOR ROBUST ESTIMATION OF PARAMETER VALUES

摘要

A method for estimating parameter values includes acquiring image data with an imaging apparatus, deriving a parameter model function from the image data, generating a N-dimensional grid, wherein N is a number of values of one or more non-linear terms of the derived model function, pre-calculating the one or more non-linear terms given the parameter model function and the designated values of the non-linear parameters, calculating one or more remaining model terms of the parameter model function, and displaying at least one of the one or more non-linear terms and remaining linear model terms.
