X-ray Computed Tomography Data of Dense Metallic Components

The data shared in here are X-ray computed tomography (XCT) scans of a hexagonal fuel nozzle in 3 sections with the Metrotom 800 system at the Manufacturing Demonstration Facility (MDF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The data are used in the paper "Tomographic Sparse View Selection using the View Covariance Loss, by Lin et al. (doi:10.1109/TPAMI.2025.36000720), accepted to the international conference on computational imaging (ICCP 2025). Figures 4-7 in the paper describe the part/XCT scan. File name Descriptions: Bottom section: TCR- Single Channeled SRC L 2019-3-18 12-26-41.hdf5 Medium section: TCR- Single Channeled SRC M 2019-3-18 13-8-9.hdf5 Top section: TCR- Single Channeled SRC T 2019-3-18 13-45-39.hdf5 Each hdf5 file contains projection data, and all the relevant X-ray CT scan setting. The full list of included attributes: distance_unit: Units of all distances specified angle_unit : Units of the angles angles: Array of all angles used voxel_size_xy: Baseline recon (if any) has this voxel size in the in-plane direction voxel_size_z: Baseline recon (if any) has this voxel size in the cross-plane direction det_pixel_size_col: Size of the detector pixels in the column dimension det_pixel_size_row: Size of the detector pixels in the row dimension src_iso_dist: Source to iso-center distance iso_det_dist: Iso-center to detector distance det_angle: If the detector is rotated/tilted, this angle corresponds to that value det_row_offset: Center of rotation offset in the vertical direction det_col_offset: Center of rotation offset in the horizontal direction reconstruction: A baseline reconstruction stored as 3D array BHC params: Beam-hardening parameters - Van De Casteel Model - if it has been used to pre-process the projections We also provided a python script (hdf_io.py) that allows the user to read the relevant data from each hdf5 file.
