Recognition of foreign objects hidden in clutter by novel method of diffraction tomography

Abstract

In this paper, we present the main aspects of a novel method of inverse problem resolving based on the framework of Feynman's path integral evaluation for foreign object recognizing in clutter conditions. Results of the proposed theoretical approach are verified with the corresponding experiments carried out for infra-red (IR) imaging a small plastic tablet hidden inside various clothes near the human body. A good agreement between the experimentally obtained and theoretically predicted data is shown in this work.
