We support 2D parallel and fan beam geometries, and 3D parallel and cone beam. All of them have highly flexible source/detector positioning. A large number of 2D and 3D algorithms are available, including FBP, SIRT, SART, CGLS. -The basic forward and backward projection operations are GPU-accelerated, and directly callable from MATLAB to enable building new algorithms. +The basic forward and backward projection operations are GPU-accelerated, and directly callable from MATLAB and Python to enable building new algorithms. ## Documentation / samples -See the matlab code samples in samples/ and on http://sf.net/projects/astra-toolbox . +See the MATLAB and Python code samples in samples/ and on http://sf.net/projects/astra-toolbox . ## Installation instructions ### Windows, binary -Add the mex and tools subdirectories to your matlab path. +Add the mex and tools subdirectories to your MATLAB path and the Python module to your Python path.. ### Linux, from source -Requirements: g++, boost, CUDA (driver+toolkit), matlab +Requirements: g++, boost, CUDA (driver+toolkit), Matlab and/or Python (2.7 or 3.x) ``` cd build/linux ./autogen.sh # when building a git version ./configure --with-cuda=/usr/local/cuda \ --with-matlab=/usr/local/MATLAB/R2012a \ + --with-python \ --prefix=/usr/local/astra make make install @@ -37,6 +38,7 @@ make install Add /usr/local/astra/lib to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
