Electronic Log for Matthieu Hentz

To Do

Urgent

  • Nada

Higher priority

  • Work on progress report
  • Write code for benchmarking metrics analysis: MTF, CDF, noise and relative error
  • Get in touch with R Schulte to get access to DROP and TVS-DROP algorithms
  • Run preliminary simulations to test the metrics

Lower priority

  • Do reconstruction of simulation with >1 billion protons
  • Convert ITK images to DICOM
  • Assign ID to each proton to simplify matching
    • Concatenating run ID and event ID to a long string does not work as the string is truncated for some reason.
    • Alternative: Use a short hash? -> Need a hash function

Completed

  • (01/02/2018) Implement phantoms to be used to determine MTF and CDF in Geant4: one uniform phantom with a single central non-uniform pixel and another truly uniform phantom
