Abstract

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a well-known technique to estimate the conductivity distribution γ of a body Ω with unknown electromagnetic properties. EIT is a severely ill-posed inverse problem. In this paper, we formulate the EIT problem in the Bayesian framework using mixed total variation (TV) and non-convex lp regularization prior. We use the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method for sampling the posterior distribution to solve the ill-posed inverse problem in EIT. We present simulations to estimate the distribution for each pixel for the image reconstruction of the conductivity in EIT.
