H2020 EXTRIMA proposal submitted

Submitter: G.H.Kruithof
Description: Today, the project proposal EXTRIMA was submitted to H2020 call FET HPC 2014 together with University of Cambridge, University of Oxford, Fraunhofer MEVIS, mediri GmbH and NL eScience Center.

EXTRIMA focuses on Reciprocal Space Imaging (RSI): the data acquisition is performed in the reciprocal space of the domain where the information extraction is needed. Instruments rely mostly on Fourier algorithms but alternative algorithms such as wavelets are increasingly being researched and applied.

The following challenges in RSI can be discerned: higher dynamic ranges and higher sensitivity, larger image sizes, faster imaging, lower energy consumption, multimodal imaging, efficient data acquisition, higher information extraction, and calibration for object motion. The challenges described above will be met by the EXTRIMA project by delivering a radically new approach on the entire Reciprocal Imaging chain with respect to the combination of algorithms and the HPC platforms involved. EXTRIMA focuses on Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Radio Astronomy.

The Astron team is composed of Monique Sluiman, Rob van der Meer, Emmy Boerma and Gert Kruithof.
