Simultaneous reconstruction and separation in a spectral CT frameworkPP

We propose a framework to simultaneously separate and reconstruct the physical components of an object observed in spectral Computed Tomography (CT) with hybrid pixel detectors, a technological breakthrough. We encompass the underlying polychromatic model of the X-ray beam with non-differentiable and low-rank priors on the components of the object. We solve a non-convex ill-posed inverse problem with a specific variable metric Forward-Backward algorithm with high speed convergence rate and show results on real data.
