We offer new illumination patterns for imaging in all-digital ghost imaging (GI) systems. The digital patterns, written as computer generated holograms on spatial light modulators (SLM), are generated by the Ising model, a well-known…

Specular reflection exists widely in photography and causes the recorded color deviating from its true value, so fast and high quality highlight removal from a single nature image is of great importance. In spite of the progress in the past…
