Abstract
En 中文
One of the main objectives of nuclear spectroscopy is the estimation of the counting rate of unknown radioactive sources. Recently an algorithm based on a sparse reconstruction of the time signal was proposed by the authors to estimate precisely this counting rate, and computable bounds were obtained to quantify the performances. This approach, based on a post-processed approach of a non-negative sparse regression of the time signal, relies on user-defined parameters which are difficult to set up automatically in practice. This paper presents a data-driven strategy to select the underlying parameters. The parameter controlling the sparsity of the regressor is chosen based on cross-validation, while we introduce a new, entropy-based, criterion to select the threshold parameters. Results obtained on simulations illustrate the efficiency of the proposed approach. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
