Historically, the resolution of optical imaging systems was dictated by diffraction, and the Rayleigh criterion was long considered an unsurpassable limit. In superresolution microscopy, this limit is overcome by manipulating the emission…

The point spread function (PSF) of a translation invariant imaging system is its impulse response, which cannot always be measured directly. This is the case in high energy X-ray radiography, and it must be estimated from images of…

We establish a simple method to assess the quantum Fisher information required for resolving two incoherent point sources with an imaging system. The resulting Cram\'er-Rao bound shows that the standard Rayleigh limit can be surpassed by…

Photon losses are intrinsic for any translationally invariant optical imaging system with a non-trivial Point Spread Function, and the relation between the transmission factor and the coherence properties of an imaged object is universal --…

The Rayleigh diffraction limit imposes a fundamental restriction on the resolution of direct imaging systems, hindering the identification of incoherent optical sources, such as celestial bodies in astronomy and fluorophores in bioimaging.…

Real-world datasets are often of high dimension and effected by the curse of dimensionality. This hinders their comprehensibility and interpretability. To reduce the complexity feature selection aims to identify features that are crucial to…

Deep-learning (DL)-based image deconvolution (ID) has exhibited remarkable recovery performance, surpassing traditional linear methods. However, unlike traditional ID approaches that rely on analytical properties of the point spread…

We consider simultaneously identifying the membership and locations of point sources that are convolved with different low-pass point spread functions, from the observation of their superpositions. This problem arises in three-dimensional…

We provide a detailed exploration of the connection between choice of coaddition schemes and the point-spread function (PSF) of the resulting coadded images. In particular, we investigate what properties of the coaddition algorithm lead to…

We report an experimental demonstration of a nonclassical imaging mechanism with super-resolving power beyond the Rayleigh limit. When the classical image is completely blurred out due to the use of a small imaging lens, by taking advantage…

The Rayleigh's criterion infamously imposes a minimum separation between two incoherent sources for them to be distinguishable via classical methods. In this work, we demonstrate the emergence of two-photon beats from the interference of a…

The point-spread function (PSF) of an imaging system describes the response of the system to a point source. Accurately determining the PSF enables one to correct for the combined effects of focussing and scattering within the imaging…

The problem of image blurring is one of the most studied topics in the field of image processing. Image blurring is caused by various factors such as hand or camera shake. To restore the blurred image, it is necessary to know information…

Imaging with a layered superlens is a spatial filtering operation characterized by the point spread function (PSF). We show that in the same optical system the image of a narrow sub-wavelength Gaussian incident field may be surprisingly…

In this paper we study the high-dimensional super-resolution imaging problem. Here we are given an image of a number of point sources of light whose locations and intensities are unknown. The image is pixelized and is blurred by a known…

No imaging apparatus can produce perfect images: spatial resolution is limited by the Rayleigh diffraction bound that is a consequence of the imager's finite spatial extent. We show some N-photon strategies that permit resolution of details…

Spatially resolving two incoherent point sources whose separation is well below the diffraction limit dictated by classical optics has recently been shown possible using techniques that decompose the incoming radiation into orthogonal…

We study light scattering by spheres made of negative refractive index materials. We demonstrate that scattering efficiency of the light does not always obey the well-known Rayleigh's law $Q_{\rm sca}\sim1/\lambda^4$ for small values of…

Ultrasound is widely used in medical diagnostics allowing for accessible and powerful imaging but suffers from resolution limitations due to diffraction and the finite aperture of the imaging system, which restricts diagnostic use. The…

One of the most important issues in the image processing is the approximation of the image that has been lost due to the blurring process. These types of matters are divided into non-blind and blind problems. The second type of problem is…
