Popis: | Discrete tomography reconstructs an image of an object on a grid from its discrete projections along relatively few directions. When the resulting system of linear equations is under-determined, the reconstructed image is not unique. Ghosts are arrays of signed pixels that have zero sum projections along these directions; they define the image pixel locations that have non-unique solutions. In general, the discrete projection directions are chosen to define a ghost that has minimal impact on the reconstructed image. Here we construct binary boundary ghosts, which only affect a thin string of pixels distant from the object centre. This means that a large portion of the object around its centre can be uniquely reconstructed. We construct these boundary ghosts from maximal primitive ghosts, configurations of $$2^N$$ connected binary ( $$\pm 1$$ ) points over N directions. Maximal ghosts obfuscate image reconstruction and find application in secure storage of digital data. |
