1) What are the dimensions of the weight matrix and projection vector used in the

SART reconstruction technique in the code, and what do these dimensions


represent in terms of the physical properties of the image being reconstructed? (2
points)
In the code, it is said that new size = [64,64] which mean the number of pixels in the
reconstructed image is 64 x 64. Also there are 3 projection view so the dimension of the
weight matrix is 4096 x 3. It is represented the contribution of each pixel to each
projection view (for example, there is 4096 pixel in 1 projection view).

2) What impact do changes in image size (64x64 vs 128x128) and angle range
(intervals of 3 vs 12) have on the accuracy and computational efficiency of the
SART and FBP reconstruction techniques in the code? (2 points)
Increasing the image size from 64x64 to 128x128 can improve the resolution and level of
detail in the reconstructed image. Increasing the angle range from intervals of 3 to 12
can improve the accuracy of the reconstructed image, ( the more projection views is
provided, the more information about the object being imaged, which can improve the
quality of the reconstructed image. However, it also increases the computational cost of
the reconstruction algorithm. Because larger images require more pixels to be processed
and a larger system matrix to be constructed, which can lead to longer computation
times and increased memory.

3) Which technique would be your choice and why? (1 points)


SART is relatively scalable and can handle larger images with reasonable computational
cost, particularly on modern computing hardware. SART can be more robust to limited
angle data than FBP, so the benefits of increasing the angle range may be more
pronounced for SART.
