ODL
Operator Discretization Library (ODL) is a Python library that enables research in inverse problems on realistic or real data. The framework allows to encapsulate a physical model into an Operator that can be used like a mathematical object in, e.g., optimization methods. Furthermore, ODL makes it easy to experiment with reconstruction methods and optimization algorithms for variational regularization, all without sacrificing performance.
For more details and an introduction into the inner workings of ODL, please refer to the documentation.
Highlights
- A versatile and efficient library of optimization routines for smooth and non-smooth problems, such as CGLS, BFGS, PDHG and Douglas-Rachford splitting.
- Support for tomographic imaging with a unified geometry representation and bindings to external libraries for efficient computation of projections and back-projections.
- And much more, including support for deep learning libraries, figures of merits, phantom generation, data handling, etc.
Installation
Installing ODL should be as easy as
conda install -c odlgroup odl
or
pip install odl
For more detailed instructions, check out the Installation guide.
ODL is compatible with Python 2/3 and all major platforms (GNU/Linux / Mac / Windows).

ODL developers
Development of ODL started in 2014 as part of the project "Low complexity image reconstruction in medical imaging” by Ozan Öktem (@ozanoktem), Jonas Adler (@adler-j) and Holger Kohr (@kohr-h). Several others have made significant contributions, see the contributors list.
To contact the developers either open an issue on the issue tracker or send an email to [email protected].
Funding
ODL has primarily been developed at KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm and Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI), Amsterdam. It is financially supported by the Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research as part of the project "Low complexity image reconstruction in medical imaging".
Some development time has also been financed by Elekta.
