The MUSIC algorithm and the Linear Sampling (Factorization) Method

Abstract:

This talk will explain two imaging algorithms, namely

1) the MUSIC signal-processing algorithm and its extension to imaging problems, and
2) the Linear Sampling or Factorization method for finding boundaries of objects, and explain how the former is a special case of the latter.
