Multiresolution dynamic image representation with uniform and foveal spiral scan data

This work addresses the problem of representing a dynamic image via its temporal spiral scan data. Two types of spiral scan data are considered: uniform density and foveal. Spatial sampling strategies for these two spiral scans are examined. A signal model is developed to interpret the temporal readouts of repeated spiral scans via two separate time variables, the slow time and fast time. This mathematical model is used to construct a method for forming the time progression of the target image. A method for increasing the repetition rate of the spiral data collection via utilizing both forward and backward spiral scans is presented. Results are provided.
