X-ray image has been widely used in many fields such as medical diagnosis,industrial inspection,and so on.Unfortunately,due to the physical characteristics of X-ray and imaging system,distortion of the projected image will happen,which restrict the application of X-ray image,especially in high accuracy fields.Distortion correction can be performed using algorithms that can be classified as global or local according to the method used,both having specific advantages and disadvantages.In this paper,a new global method based on support vector regression（SVR）machine for distortion correction is proposed.In order to test the presented method,a calibration phantom is specially designed for this purpose.A comparison of the proposed method with the traditional global distortion correction techniques is performed.The experimental results show that the proposed correction method performs better than the traditional global one.
