Simulated X-ray computed tomography (XCT) and ground truth images of cylindrical sample with randomly distributed spherical pores

X-ray computed tomography (XCT) datasets with known ground truth pores were developed using realistic XCT simulation. Non-overlapping spherical pores of varying sizes are randomly distributed in a cylindrical part near surfaces and within the core. Ground truth data, ground truth binary data, normalized projection, and reconstructed data for three different signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) are provided. The data set can be used for evaluation and comparison of image segmentation/detection and reconstruction algorithms.
