Abstract

The reconstruction problem for Electrical Impedance Tomography is an ill-posed non-linear inverse problem. It is highly sensitive to modelling and measurement errors and iterative reconstruction algorithms are very computationally demanding. In this paper we describe some of our work to overcome these difficulties by investigating the effect on reconstructions of geometric errors and of our attempts to speed up the reconstruction algorithms using parallel processing techniques.
