Autoencoder-based learning of transmission parameters in fast pulse-echo ultrasound imaging employing sparse recovery. - In: IEEE Xplore digital library, ISSN 2473-2001, (2023), S. 516-520

There is recently a notable rise in the exploration of pulse-echo ultrasound image reconstruction techniques that address the inverse problem employing sparse signal and rely on a single measurement cycle. Nevertheless, these techniques continue to pose significant challenges with regard to accuracy of estimations. Previous studies have endeavored to decrease the correlation between received samples in each transducer array in order to enhance accuracy of sparsely approximated solutions to inverse problems. In this paper, our objective is to learn the transmission parameters within a parametric measurement matrix by employing an autoencoder, which encodes sparse spatial data with a parametric measurement matrix and subsequently decodes it using Fast Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm (FISTA). Outcomes exhibit superior performance in comparison to both state-of-art random selection of the parameters and conventional plane wave imaging (PWI) scenarios in terms of reconstruction accuracy.

Data-driven subsampling matrices design for phased array ultrasound nondestructive testing. - In: IEEE IUS 2023, International Ultrasonics Symposium, Palais des congrès de Montréal, September 3-8, 2023, (2023), insges. 4 S.

By subsampling optimally in the spatial and temporal domains, ultrasound imaging can achieve high performance, while also accelerating data acquisition and reducing storage requirements. We study the design of experiment problem that attempts to find an optimal choice of the subsampling patterns, leading to a non-convex combinatorial optimization problem. Recently, deep learning was shown to provide a feasible approach for solving such problems efficiently by virtue of the softmax function as a differentiable approximation of the one-hot encoded subsampling vectors. We incorporate softmax neural networks into information theory-based and task-based algorithms, respectively, to design optimal subsampling matrices in Full Matrix Capture (FMC) measurements predicated on compressed sensing theory.

Deep learning-based optimal spatial subsampling in ultrasound nondestructive testing. - In: 31st European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO 2024), (2023), S. 1863-1867

Traditional ultrasound synthetic aperture imaging relies on closely spaced measurement positions, where the pitch size is smaller than half the ultrasound wavelength. While this approach achieves high-quality images, it necessitates the storage of large data sets and an extended measurement time. To address these issues, there is a burgeoning interest in exploring effective subsampling techniques. Recently, Deep Probabilistic Subsampling (DPS) has emerged as a feasible approach for designing selection matrices for multi-channel systems. In this paper, we address spatial subsampling in single-channel ultrasound imaging for Nondestructive Testing (NDT) applications. To accomplish a model-based data-driven spatial subsampling approach within the DPS framework that allows for the optimal selection of sensing positions on a discretized grid, it is crucial to build an adequate signal model and design an adapted network architecture with a reasonable cost function. The reconstructed image quality is then evaluated through simulations, showing that the presented subsampling pattern approaches the performance of fully sampling and substantially outperforms uniformly spatial subsampling in terms of signal recovery quality.

Optimization of transmission parameters in fast pulse-echo ultrasound imaging using sparse recovery. - In: 31st European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO 2024), (2023), S. 441-445

In pulse-echo ultrasound imaging, the goal is to achieve a certain image quality while minimizing the duration of the signal acquisition. In the past, fast ultrasound imaging methods applying sparse signal recovery have been implemented by accepting a single pulse-echo measurement. However, they have experienced a certain amount of reconstruction error. In sparse signal recovery, reducing the correlation between the samples of the measurements observed by the different receivers is beneficial for lowering the reconstruction error. Exploiting the Born approximation and Green's function for the wave equation, the analytical inverse scattering problem can be defined in matrix-vector form. Adopting this setting, it has been suggested in the past to reduce the correlation between the samples of the measurement using Cylindrical Waves (CWs) with randomly selected delays and weights. In a similar setting, we created an optimization problem accepting transmission delays and weights as variables to minimize the correlation between the samples of the measurement in each receiver. We demonstrate via simulations that CWs employing the optimized transmission parameters outperformed the cases with Plane Wave Imaging (PWI) and CWs with random transmission parameters in terms of reconstruction accuracy.

Monitoring of joint gap formation in laser beam butt welding using neural network-based acoustic emission analysis. - In: Crystals, ISSN 2073-4352, Bd. 13 (2023), 10, 1451, S. 1-14

This study aimed to explore the feasibility of using airborne acoustic emission in laser beam butt welding for the development of an automated classification system based on neural networks. The focus was on monitoring the formation of joint gaps during the welding process. To simulate various sizes of butt joint gaps, controlled welding experiments were conducted, and the emitted acoustic signals were captured using audible-to-ultrasonic microphones. To implement an automated monitoring system, a method based on short-time Fourier transformation was developed to extract audio features, and a convolutional neural network architecture with data augmentation was utilized. The results demonstrated that this non-destructive and non-invasive approach was highly effective in detecting joint gap formations, achieving an accuracy of 98%. Furthermore, the system exhibited promising potential for the low-latency monitoring of the welding process. The classification accuracy for various gap sizes reached up to 90%, providing valuable insights for characterizing and categorizing joint gaps accurately. Additionally, increasing the quantity of training data with quality annotations could potentially improve the classifier model’s performance further. This suggests that there is room for future enhancements in the study.

Compressed Sensing: from big data to relevant data. - In: Handbook of Nondestructive Evaluation 4.0, (2022), S. 329-352

Though the ever-increasing availability of digital data in the context of NDE 4.0 is mostly considered a blessing, it can turn to a curse quite rapidly: managing large amounts of data puts a burden on the sensor devices in terms of sampling and transmission, the networks, as well as the server infrastructure in terms of storing, maintaining, and accessing the data. Yet, NDE data can be highly redundant so the storage of massive amounts of data may indeed be wasteful. This is the main reason why focusing on relevant data as early as possible in the NDE process is highly advocated in the context of NDE 4.0. This chapter introduces Compressed Sensing as a potential approach to put this vision to practice. Compressed Sensing theory has shown that sampling signals with sampling rates that are significantly below the Shannon-Nyquist rate is possible without loss of information, provided that prior knowledge about the signals to be acquired is available. In fact, we may sample as low as the actual information rate if our prior knowledge is sufficiently accurate. In the NDE 4.0 context, prior knowledge can stem from the known inspection task and geometry but it can also include previous recordings of the same piece (such as in Structural Health Monitoring), information stored in the digital product memory along the products’ life cycle, or predictions generated through the products’ digital twins. In addition to data reduction, reconstruction algorithms developed in the Compressed Sensing community can be applied for enhanced processing of NDE data, providing added value in terms of accuracy or reliability. The chapter introduces Compressed Sensing basics and gives some concrete examples of its application in the NDE 4.0 context, in particular for ultrasound.

Deep learning aided interpolation of spatio-temporal nonstationary data. - In: 30th European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO 2022), (2022), S. 2221-2225

Despite the growing interest in many fields, spatio-temporal (ST) interpolation remains challenging. Given ST nonstationary data distributed sparsely and irregularly over space, our objective is to obtain an equidistant representation of the region of interest (ROI). For this reason, an equidistant grid is defined within the ROI, where the available time series data are arranged, and the time series of the unobserved points are interpolated. Aiming to maintain the interpretability of the whole process while offering flexibility and fast execution, this work presents a ST interpolation frame-work which combines a statistical technique with deep learning. Our framework is generic and not confined to a specific application, which also provides the prediction confidence. To evaluate its validity, this framework is applied to ultrasound nondestructive testing (UT) data as an example. After the training with synthetic UT data sets, our framework is shown to yield accurate predictions when applied to measured UT data.

Preprocessing of freehand ultrasound synthetic aperture measurements using DNN. - In: 29th European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO 2021), (2021), S. 1401-1405

Manual ultrasonic inspection is a widely used Nondestructive Testing (NDT) technique due to its simplicity and compatibility with complex structures. However, in contrast to the data acquired using a robotic positioner, manual measurements suffer from perturbations caused by a variable coupling and a varying scanning density. Imaging techniques like the synthetic aperture focusing technique rely on an unperturbed dense measurement from an equidistant measurement grid. Consequently, imaging based on freehand measurements leads to artifacts. This work aims at reducing such artifacts by preprocessing the manual measurements using Deep Neural Networks (DNN). The training of a DNN requires a large set of labeled measurements which is difficult to obtain in NDT. In this work, we present a technique to train the DNN using only synthetic data. We show that the resulting DNN generalizes well on real measurements. We present an improvement in Generalized Contrast to Noise Ratio by a factor of 20 and 3 compared to omitting the preprocessing for synthetic and measurement data, respectively.

Compressed ultrasound computed tomography in NDT. - In: IEEE IUS 2021, (2021), insges. 4 S.

Ultrasound Computed Tomography (UCT) is challenging due to phenomena such as strong refraction, multiple scattering, and mode conversion. In NDT, large speed of sound contrasts lead to strong artifacts if such phenomena are not modeled correctly; however, enhanced models are computationally expensive. In this work, a two-step framework for Compressed UCT based on the integral approach to the solution of the Helmholtz equation is presented. It comprises a physically motivated forward step and an imaging step that solves a suitable inverse problem. Multiple scattering is accounted for through the use of Neumann series. Convergence problems of Neumann series in high contrast settings are addressed via Padé approximants. Compressed sensing is employed to reduce the computational complexity of the reconstruction procedure by reducing data volumes directly at the measurement step, avoiding redundancy in the data and allowing the ability to steer the admissible computational effort at the expense of reconstruction quality. The proposed method is shown to yield high quality reconstructions under heavy subsampling in the frequency and spatial domains.

Frequency subsampling of ultrasound nondestructive measurements: acquisition, reconstruction, and performance. - In: IEEE transactions on ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control, ISSN 1525-8955, Bd. 68 (2021), 10, S. 3174-3191

In ultrasound nondestructive testing (NDT), a widespread approach is to take synthetic aperture measurements from the surface of a specimen to detect and locate defects within it. Based on these measurements, imaging is usually performed using the synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT). However, SAFT is suboptimal in terms of resolution and requires oversampling in the time domain to obtain a fine grid for the delay-and-sum (DAS). On the other hand, parametric reconstruction algorithms give better resolution, but their usage for imaging becomes computationally expensive due to the size of the parameter space and a large amount of measurement data in realistic 3-D scenarios when using oversampling. In the literature, the remedies to this are twofold. First, the amount of measurement data can be reduced using state-of-the-art sub-Nyquist sampling approaches to measure Fourier coefficients instead of time-domain samples. Second, parametric reconstruction algorithms mostly rely on matrix-vector operations that can be implemented efficiently by exploiting the underlying structure of the model. In this article, we propose and compare different strategies to choose the Fourier coefficients to be measured. Their asymptotic performance is compared by numerically evaluating the Cramér-Rao bound (CRB) for the localizability of the defect coordinates. These subsampling strategies are then combined with an l1-minimization scheme to compute 3-D reconstructions from the low-rate measurements. Compared to conventional DAS, this allows us to formulate a fully physically motivated forward model matrix. To enable this, the projection operations of the forward model matrix are implemented matrix-free by exploiting the underlying two-level Toeplitz structure. Finally, we show that high-resolution reconstructions from as low as a single Fourier coefficient per A-scan are possible based on simulated data and measurements from a steel specimen.

Locally optimal subsampling strategies for full matrix capture measurements in pipe inspection. - In: Applied Sciences, ISSN 2076-3417, Bd. 11 (2021), 9, 4291, S. 1-14

In ultrasonic non-destructive testing, array and matrix transducers are being employed for applications that require in-field steerability or which benefit from a higher number of insonification angles. Having many transmit channels, on the other hand, increases the measurement time and renders the use of array transducers unfeasible for many applications. In the literature, methods for reducing the number of required channels compared to the full matrix capture scheme have been proposed. Conventionally, these are based on choosing the aperture that is as wide as possible. In this publication, we investigate a scenario from the field of pipe inspection, where cracks have to be detected in specific areas near the weld. Consequently, the width of the aperture has to be chosen according to the region of interest at hand. On the basis of ray-tracing simulations which incorporate a model of the transducer directivity and beam spread at the interface, we derive application specific measures of the energy distribution over the array configuration for given regions of interest. These are used to determine feasible subsampling schemes. For the given scenario, the validity/quality of the derived subsampling schemes are compared on the basis of reconstructions using the conventional total focusing method as well as sparsity driven-reconstructions using the Fast Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm. The results can be used to effectively improve the measurement time for the given application without notable loss in defect detectability.

Subsampling approaches for compressed sensing with ultrasound arrays in non-destructive testing. - In: Sensors, ISSN 1424-8220, Bd. 20 (2020), 23, 6734, insges. 23 S.

Full Matrix Capture is a multi-channel data acquisition method which enables flexible, high resolution imaging using ultrasound arrays. However, the measurement time and data volume are increased considerably. Both of these costs can be circumvented via compressed sensing, which exploits prior knowledge of the underlying model and its sparsity to reduce the amount of data needed to produce a high resolution image. In order to design compression matrices that are physically realizable without sophisticated hardware constraints, structured subsampling patterns are designed and evaluated in this work. The design is based on the analysis of the Cramér–Rao Bound of a single scatterer in a homogeneous, isotropic medium. A numerical comparison of the point spread functions obtained with different compression matrices and the Fast Iterative Shrinkage/Thresholding Algorithm shows that the best performance is achieved when each transmit event can use a different subset of receiving elements and each receiving element uses a different section of the echo signal spectrum. Such a design has the advantage of outperforming other structured patterns to the extent that suboptimal selection matrices provide a good performance and can be efficiently computed with greedy approaches.

Hardware architecture for ultra-wideband channel impulse response measurements using compressed sensing. - In: 28th European Signal Processing Conference (EUSIPCO 2020), (2020), S. 1663-1667

We propose a compact hardware architecture for measuring sparse channel impulse responses (IR) by extending the M-Sequence ultra-wideband (UWB) measurement principle with the concept of compressed sensing. A channel is excited with a periodic M-sequence and its response signal is observed using a Random Demodulator (RD), which observes pseudo-random linear combinations of the response signal at a rate significantly lower than the measurement bandwidth. The excitation signal and the RD mixing signal are generated from compactly implementable Linear Feedback Shift registers (LFSR) and operated from a common clock. A linear model is derived that allows retrieving an IR from a set of observations using Sparse-Signal-Recovery (SSR). A Matrix-free model implementation is possible due to the choice of synchronous LFSRs as signal generators, resulting in low computational complexity. For validation, real measurement data of a time-variant channel containing multipath components is processed by simulation models of our proposed architecture and the classic M-Sequence method. We show successful IR recovery using our architecture and SSR, outperforming the classic method significantly in terms of IR measurement rate. Compared to the classic method, the proposed architecture allows faster measurements of sparse time-varying channels, resulting in higher Doppler tolerance without increasing hardware or data stream complexity.

Acoustic process monitoring in laser beam welding. - In: 11th CIRP Conference on Photonic Technologies [LANE 2020], (2020), S. 763-768

Structure-borne acoustic emission (AE) measurement shows major advantages regarding quality assurance and process control in industrial applications. In this paper, laser beam welding of steel and aluminum was carried out under varying process parameters (welding speed, focal position) in order to provide data by means of structure-borne AE and simultaneously high-speed video recordings. The analysis is based on conventionally (e.g. filtering, autocorrelation, spectrograms) as well as machine learning methods (convolutional neural nets) and showed promising results with respect to the use of structure-borne AE for process monitoring using the example of spatter formation.

Unsere moderne Gesellschaft ist Zeuge eines fundamentalen Wandels in der Art und Weise wie wir mit Technologie interagieren. Geräte werden zunehmend intelligenter - sie verfügen über mehr und mehr Rechenleistung und häufiger über eigene Kommunikationsschnittstellen. Das beginnt bei einfachen Haushaltsgeräten und reicht über Transportmittel bis zu großen überregionalen Systemen wie etwa dem Stromnetz. Die Erfassung, die Verarbeitung und der Austausch digitaler Informationen gewinnt daher immer mehr an Bedeutung. Die Tatsache, dass ein wachsender Anteil der Geräte heutzutage mobil und deshalb batteriebetrieben ist, begründet den Anspruch, digitale Signalverarbeitungsalgorithmen besonders effizient zu gestalten. Dies kommt auch dem Wunsch nach einer Echtzeitverarbeitung der großen anfallenden Datenmengen zugute. Die vorliegende Arbeit demonstriert Methoden zum Finden effizienter algebraischer Lösungen für eine Vielzahl von Anwendungen mehrkanaliger digitaler Signalverarbeitung. Solche Ansätze liefern nicht immer unbedingt die bestmögliche Lösung, kommen dieser jedoch häufig recht nahe und sind gleichzeitig bedeutend einfacher zu beschreiben und umzusetzen. Die einfache Beschreibungsform ermöglicht eine tiefgehende Analyse ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit, was für den Entwurf eines robusten und zuverlässigen Systems unabdingbar ist. Die Tatsache, dass sie nur gebräuchliche algebraische Hilfsmittel benötigen, erlaubt ihre direkte und zügige Umsetzung und den Test unter realen Bedingungen. Diese Grundidee wird anhand von drei verschiedenen Anwendungsgebieten demonstriert. Zunächst wird ein semi-algebraisches Framework zur Berechnung der kanonisch polyadischen (CP) Zerlegung mehrdimensionaler Signale vorgestellt. Dabei handelt es sich um ein sehr grundlegendes Werkzeug der multilinearen Algebra mit einem breiten Anwendungsspektrum von Mobilkommunikation über Chemie bis zur Bildverarbeitung. Verglichen mit existierenden iterativen Lösungsverfahren bietet das neue Framework die Möglichkeit, den Rechenaufwand und damit die Güte der erzielten Lösung zu steuern. Es ist außerdem weniger anfällig gegen eine schlechte Konditionierung der Ausgangsdaten. Das zweite Gebiet, das in der Arbeit besprochen wird, ist die unterraumbasierte hochauflösende Parameterschätzung für mehrdimensionale Signale, mit Anwendungsgebieten im RADAR, der Modellierung von Wellenausbreitung, oder bildgebenden Verfahren in der Medizin. Es wird gezeigt, dass sich derartige mehrdimensionale Signale mit Tensoren darstellen lassen. Dies erlaubt eine natürlichere Beschreibung und eine bessere Ausnutzung ihrer Struktur als das mit Matrizen möglich ist. Basierend auf dieser Idee entwickeln wir eine tensor-basierte Schätzung des Signalraums, welche genutzt werden kann um beliebige existierende Matrix-basierte Verfahren zu verbessern. Dies wird im Anschluss exemplarisch am Beispiel der ESPRIT-artigen Verfahren gezeigt, für die verbesserte Versionen vorgeschlagen werden, die die mehrdimensionale Struktur der Daten (Tensor-ESPRIT), nichzirkuläre Quellsymbole (NC ESPRIT), sowie beides gleichzeitig (NC Tensor-ESPRIT) ausnutzen. Um die endgültige Schätzgenauigkeit objektiv einschätzen zu können wird dann ein Framework für die analytische Beschreibung der Leistungsfähigkeit beliebiger ESPRIT-artiger Algorithmen diskutiert. Verglichen mit existierenden analytischen Ausdrücken ist unser Ansatz allgemeiner, da keine Annahmen über die statistische Verteilung von Nutzsignal und Rauschen benötigt werden und die Anzahl der zur Verfügung stehenden Schnappschüsse beliebig klein sein kann. Dies führt auf vereinfachte Ausdrücke für den mittleren quadratischen Schätzfehler, die Schlussfolgerungen über die Effizienz der Verfahren unter verschiedenen Bedingungen zulassen. Das dritte Anwendungsgebiet ist der bidirektionale Datenaustausch mit Hilfe von Relay-Stationen. Insbesondere liegt hier der Fokus auf Zwei-Wege-Relaying mit Hilfe von Amplify-and-Forward-Relays mit mehreren Antennen, da dieser Ansatz ein besonders gutes Kosten-Nutzen-Verhältnis verspricht. Es wird gezeigt, dass sich die nötige Kanalkenntnis mit einem einfachen algebraischen Tensor-basierten Schätzverfahren gewinnen lässt. Außerdem werden Verfahren zum Finden einer günstigen Relay-Verstärkungs-Strategie diskutiert. Bestehende Ansätze basieren entweder auf komplexen numerischen Optimierungsverfahren oder auf Ad-Hoc-Ansätzen die keine zufriedenstellende Bitfehlerrate oder Summenrate liefern. Deshalb schlagen wir algebraische Ansätze zum Finden der Relayverstärkungsmatrix vor, die von relevanten Systemmetriken inspiriert sind und doch einfach zu berechnen sind. Wir zeigen das algebraische ANOMAX-Verfahren zum Erreichen einer niedrigen Bitfehlerrate und seine Modifikation RR-ANOMAX zum Erreichen einer hohen Summenrate. Für den Spezialfall, in dem die Endgeräte nur eine Antenne verwenden, leiten wir eine semi-algebraische Lösung zum Finden der Summenraten-optimalen Strategie (RAGES) her. Anhand von numerischen Simulationen wird die Leistungsfähigkeit dieser Verfahren bezüglich Bitfehlerrate und erreichbarer Datenrate bewertet und ihre Effektivität gezeigt.

Hochauflösende Parameterschätzverfahren stellen ein Forschungsgebiet dar, welches bereits seit Jahrzehnten weltweit merkliche Beachtung findet. Die entsprechenden Methoden lassen sich zur Lösung einer Vielzahl von praktischen Problemen verwenden, wie etwa der Radarsignalverarbeitung, bildgebenden Verfahren in der Medizin, Audiokodierung, Mobilkommunikationoder Kanalmodellierung aus Kanalmessdaten. Die hohe Bandbreite an möglichen Anwendungen erklärt auch, warum auf diesem Gebiet nach wie vor sehr aktiv geforscht wird. In dieser Arbeit werden zwei grundsätzliche Fortschritte in diesem Feld diskutiert. Im ersten Teil werden die mehrdimensionalen Signale, die dem Problem zu Grunde liegen, näher beleuchtet. In den meisten bisherigen Verfahren werden diese Signale mit Hilfe von Matrizen dargestellt. Da diese aber nur zweidimensional sind, geben sie die höherdimensionale Struktur der Signale nicht gut wieder. Eine sehr viel geeignetere Repräsentation ist mit Tensoren möglich, die beliebig viele Dimensionen haben können. Diese offensichtliche Feststellung ist Ausgangspunkt dafür, bestehende Verfahren mit Hilfe von Tensoren neu zu entwickeln. Im Ergebnis entstehen neuartige tensor-basierte Methoden, welche in diesem Teil der Arbeit entwickelt und evaluiert werden. Der zweite Teil befasst sich mit einer Klasse von Signalen, die als nicht-zirkuläre Signale bezeichnet werden. Hier wird gezeigt, wie bestehende hochauflösende Parameterschätzverfahren verbessert werden können, wenn die Quellsignale nicht-zirkulär sind. Es werden dann zwei Algorithmen gezeigt, die diese Verbesserungen enthalten und in ihrer Leistungsfähigkeit bewertet. Im letzten Kapitel wird schließlich die Cramér-Rao Schranke für diese Art der Signale hergeleitet, welche eine untere Schranke für den Schätzfehler einer großen Klasse von Schätzverfahren darstellt. Für das hier verwendete Datenmodell wurde diese Schranke in der bisher existierenden Literatur noch nirgends angegeben. Der Anspruch dieser Arbeit ist, die mathematischen Grundlagen für die genannten Fortschritte zu legen und Algorithmen abzuleiten, die diese Erweiterungen beinhalten. Das Hauptaugenmerk liegt also auf den theoretischen Aspekten und weniger auf den Problemen einer praktischen Anwendung dieser Verfahren.
