• Abstract: Flame tomography is a compelling approach for extracting large amounts of data from experiments via 3-D thermochemical reconstruction. Recent efforts employing neural-network flame representations have suggested improved reconstruction quality compared with classical tomography approaches, but a rigorous quantitative comparison with the same algorithm using a voxel-grid representation has not been conducted. Here, we compare a classical voxel-grid representation with varying regularizers to a continuous neural representation for tomographic reconstruction of a simulated pool fire. The representations are constructed to give temperature and composition as a function of location, and a subsequent ray-tracing step is used to solve the radiative transfer equation to determine the spectral intensity incident on hyperspectral infrared cameras, which is then convolved with an instrument lineshape function. We demonstrate that the voxel-grid approach with a total-variation regularizer reproduces the ground-truth synthetic flame with the highest accuracy for reduced memory intensity and runtime. Future work will explore more representations and under experimental configurations.

  In biometrics and surveillance, thermal imagining modalities are often used to capture images in low-light and nighttime conditions. Such imaging systems often suffer from atmospheric turbulence, which introduces severe blur and deformation artifacts to the captured images. An end-to-end reconstruction method is proposed which can directly transform thermal images into visible-spectrum images.
