    Abstract: A system and method include acquisition of a set of projections from an object using a CT imaging system and reconstruct an initial image of the scanned object from the set of projections, the reconstructed initial image comprising a plurality of pixels. The system and method also include identification of a candidate pixel within the plurality of pixels, application of a nonlinear enhancement to the candidate pixel to iteratively adjust an intensity value of the candidate pixel, and generation of a final image using the adjusted intensity value of the candidate pixel.

    Abstract: A method is provided. The method includes acquiring projection data of an object from a plurality of pixels, reconstructing the acquired projection data from the plurality of pixels into a reconstructed image, performing material characterization and decomposition of an image volume of the reconstructed image to reduce a number of materials analyzed in the image volume to two basis materials. The method also includes generating a re-mapped image volume for at least one basis material of the two basis materials, and performing forward projection on at least the re-mapped image volume for the at least one basis material to produce a material-based projection. The method further includes generating multi-material corrected projections based on the material-based projection and a total projection attenuated by the object, which represents both of the two basis materials, wherein the multi-material corrected projections include linearized projections.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for deep learning-based system design improvement are provided. An example system design engine apparatus includes a deep learning network (DLN) model associated with each component of a target system to be emulated, each DLN model to be trained using known input and known output, wherein the known input and known output simulate input and output of the associated component of the target system, and wherein each DLN model is connected as each associated component to be emulated is connected in the target system to form a digital model of the target system. The example apparatus also includes a model processor to simulate behavior of the target system and/or each component of the target system to be emulated using the digital model to generate a recommendation regarding a configuration of a component of the target system and/or a structure of the component of the target system.
