Abstract

Fast computation of projection images is crucial in many applications such as medical image reconstruction and light field image processing. To do that, parallelization of the computation and efficient implementation of the computation using a parallel processor such as GPGPU (General-Purpose computing on Graphics Processing Units) is essential. In this research, we investigate methods for parallel computation of projection images and efficient implementation of the methods using CUDA (Compute Unified Device Architecture). We also study how to efficiently use the memory of GPU for the parallel processing.
