Query: A novel method for the line-of-response and time-of-flight
  reconstruction in TOF-PET detectors based on a library of synchronized model
  signals   A novel method of hit time and hit position reconstruction in scintillator
detectors is described. The method is based on comparison of detector signals
with results stored in a library of synchronized model signals registered for a
set of well-defined positions of scintillation points. The hit position is
reconstructed as the one corresponding to the signal from the library which is
most similar to the measurement signal. The time of the interaction is
determined as a relative time between the measured signal and the most similar
one in the library. A degree of similarity of measured and model signals is
defined as the distance between points representing the measurement- and
model-signal in the multi-dimensional measurement space. Novelty of the method
lies also in the proposed way of synchronization of model signals enabling
direct determination of the difference between time-of-flights (TOF) of
annihilation quanta from the annihilation point to the detectors. The
introduced method was validated using experimental data obtained by means of
the double strip prototype of the J-PET detector and $^{22}$Na sodium isotope
as a source of annihilation gamma quanta.The detector was built out from
plastic scintillator strips with dimensions of 5 mm x 19 mm x 300 mm, optically
connected at both sides to photomultipliers,from which signals were sampled by
means of the Serial Data Analyzer.Using the introduced method, the spatial and
TOF resolution of about 1.3 cm ($\sigma$) and 125 ps ($\sigma$) were
established, respectively.
