    Abstract: Disclosed are a method and a device for security-inspection of liquid articles with dual-energy CT imaging. The method comprises the steps of obtaining one or more CT images including physical attributes of liquid article to be inspected by CT scanning and a dual-energy reconstruction method; acquiring the physical attributes of each liquid article from the CT image; and determining whether there are drugs concealed in the inspected liquid article based on the difference between the acquired physical attributes and reference physical attributes of the inspected liquid article. The CT scanning can be implemented by a normal CT scanning technique, or a spiral CT scanning technique. In the normal CT scanning technique, the scan position can be preset, or set by the operator with a DR image, or set by automatic analysis of the DR image.

    Abstract: A semantic-based method and apparatus for retrieving a perspective image, an electronic device and a computer-readable storage medium are provided. An method includes obtaining a perspective image for a space containing an inspected object therein. A semantic division on the perspective image is performed using a first method, to obtain a plurality of semantic region units. A feature extraction network is constructed using a second method. Based on the perspective image and each of the plurality of semantic region units, a feature of each semantic region unit is extracted using the feature extraction network. Based on the feature of each semantic region unit, an image most similar to the semantic region unit is retrieved from an image feature database, to assist in determining an inspected object in the semantic region unit.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a dual-energy ray imaging method and system. The method comprises: calculating the mass thicknesses of the materials in the overlapped area of two materials by using a calibrated surface fitting method, and then decomposing a pair of original high-energy and low-energy data for this pixel into two high-low-energy data sets corresponding to the two materials, and finally calculating and acquiring the composition result of different materials for each pixel. The disclosure is especially advantageous in that the problem of error recognition of materials due to the two overlapped materials can be eliminated and the stratified imaging of multiple materials can be achieved, thereby improving the accuracy of the substance recognition and reducing the rate of false positive and false negative which is very important to the applications in the field of security check and anti-smuggling.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a self-prior information based X-ray dual-energy CT reconstruction method, which can utilize information inherent in data to provide a prior model, thereby obtaining a reconstructed image with a high quality. The X-ray dual-energy CT reconstruction method according to the present disclosure comprises: (a) rating an energy spectrum and establishing a dual-energy lookup table; (b) collecting high-energy data pH and low-energy data pL of a dual-energy CT imaging system using a detector of the dual-energy CT imaging system; (c) obtaining projection images R1 and R2 of scaled images r1 and r2 according to the obtained high-energy data pH and low-energy data pL; (d) reconstructing the scaled image r2 using a first piece-wise smooth constraint condition and thereby obtaining an electron density image; and (e) reconstructing the scaled image r1 using a second piece-wise smooth constraint condition and thereby obtaining an equivalent atomic number image. In the present disclosure, the noise in the dual-energy reconstructed image can be effectively prohibited while keeping the resolution by effectively using information inherent in data.
