Popis: Owing to its low cost, fast response, non-invasiveness, and non-radiation, electrical impedance tomography (EIT) has been applied to numerous fields. However, its spatial resolution is low due to the inherent ill-posed problem and the “soft field” effect. The $L_{p}$ regularization ( $0 ) is effective for overcoming these disadvantages, and efforts have been made to use regularization from the most popular $L_{2}$ to its variants $L_{1}$ and $ L_{1/2}$ . Nevertheless, $L_{p}$ regularization is generally difficult to be solved fast and efficiently, and the selection of p yielding the best result is also a problem. In this paper, an adaptive re-weighted (ARW) algorithm with a general frame is presented to solve the $L_{p}$ regularization for EIT, with p for each pixel determined adaptively in iterations. Experiments were carried out to validate the proposed algorithm. Results show that compared with other EIT algorithms, the ARW algorithm had a higher spatial resolution. Moreover, it can provide a wider range of selection for regularization parameter, which increases the practicality of the proposed algorithm.
