# CCPi-Regularisation Toolkit (CCPi-RGL)

**Iterative image reconstruction (IIR) methods normally require regularisation to stabilise the convergence and make the reconstruction problem more well-posed. 
CCPi-RGL software consist of 2D/3D regularisation modules for single-channel and multi-channel reconstruction problems. The modules especially suited for IIR, however,
can also be used as image denoising iterative filters. The core modules are written in C-OMP and CUDA languages and wrappers for Matlab and Python are provided.** 

## Prerequisites: 

 * MATLAB (www.mathworks.com/products/matlab/) OR
 * Python (tested ver. 3.5); Cython
 * C compilers
 * nvcc (CUDA SDK) compilers

## Package modules (regularisers):

### Single-channel
1. Rudin-Osher-Fatemi (ROF) Total Variation (explicit PDE minimisation scheme) [2D/3D GPU/CPU]; (Ref. 1)
2. Fast-Gradient-Projection (FGP) Total Variation [2D/3D GPU/CPU]; (Ref. 2)

### Multi-channel

## Installation:

### Python (conda-build)
```
	export CIL_VERSION=0.9.2
	conda build recipes/regularisers --numpy 1.12 --python 3.5 
	conda install cil_regulariser=0.9.2 --use-local --force
	cd Wrappers/Python
	conda build conda-recipe --numpy 1.12 --python 3.5 
	conda install ccpi-regulariser=0.9.2 --use-local --force
	cd demos/
	python demo_cpu_regularisers.py.py # to run CPU demo
```
### Matlab
```
	cd /Wrappers/Matlab/mex_compile
	compileCPU_mex.m % to compile CPU modules
	compileGPU_mex.m % to compile GPU modules (see instructions in the file)
```
