Abstract

Criteria for comparing images of acoustic-emission tomography to an etalon via numerical simulation are tested. The results of approbation of metric and correlation criteria for comparing images and the signal-to-noise ratio for 3D inhomogeneities of sinusoidal and gaussoid types are presented. The pixel-by-pixel absolute and relative differences between images are efficient for obtaining the spatial distribution of differences between images and are quite sensitive to the inhomogeneity parameters and the data-collection and tomographic-reconstruction schemes. The comparison of the reconstructed images to a gaussoid-type etalon has shown that the image-correlation coefficient and the signal-to-noise ratio are quite sensitive to the inhomogeneity parameters and the data-collection and tomographic-reconstruction schemes. The integral metric criteria (the mean absolute and rms deviations) are almost insensitive to these parameters. The comparison of the reconstructed images to a sinusoidal etalon characterized by a large constant component has shown that the metric criteria and the centered-data correlation coefficient are sensitive to changes in the inhomogeneity parameters and the data-collection and tomographic-reconstruction schemes.
