Description
The TomOpt software has been developed to optimize the geometrical layout
and specifications of detectors designed for muon scattering tomography.
Based on differentiable programming techniques, TomOpt consists in a modular pipeline that models all the aspects of a muon tomography task, from the generation and interaction of cosmic ray muons with a parameterized detector and passive material, to the inference on the volume properties. This enables the optimization of the detector parameters via gradient descent, to suggest optimal detector configurations and specifications. The geometry optimization will be studied for several relevant use case subject to various external constraints such as cost, logistic and material identification efficiency.
