Recently it was reported that deeply subwavelength features of free space superoscillatory electromagnetic fields can be observed experimentally and used in optical metrology with nanoscale resolution [Science 364, 771 (2019)]. Here we…
Photon-counting energy resolving detectors are subject to intense research interest, and there is a need for a general framework for performance assessment of these detectors. The commonly used linear-systems theory framework, which…
The vast majority of Dimensionality Reduction (DR) techniques rely on second-order statistics to define their optimization objective. Even though this provides adequate results in most cases, it comes with several shortcomings. The methods…
Secondary electron (SE) imaging techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy and helium ion microscopy (HIM), use electrons emitted by a sample in response to a focused beam of charged particles incident at a grid of raster scan…
We present a progressive image decomposition method based on a novel non-linear filter named Sub-window Variance filter. Our method is specifically designed for image detail enhancement purpose; this application requires extraction of image…
Due to numerous hardware shortcomings, medical image acquisition devices are susceptible to producing low-quality (i.e., low contrast, inappropriate brightness, noisy, etc.) images. Regrettably, perceptually degraded images directly impact…
We present a new analysis method for atomic resolution four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D-STEM, in which a diffraction pattern is collected at each point of a raster scan of a focused electron beam across the…
The growing number of dimensionality reduction methods available for data visualization has recently inspired the development of quality assessment measures, in order to evaluate the resulting low-dimensional representation independently…
The prevalence of digital sensors, such as digital cameras and mobile phones, simplifies the acquisition of photos. Digital sensors, however, suffer from producing Moire when photographing objects having complex textures, which deteriorates…
Dielectric tensor tomography is an imaging technique for mapping three-dimensional distributions of dielectric properties in transparent materials. This work introduces an enhanced illumination strategy employing a micro-electromechanical…
As its name suggests, sufficient dimension reduction (SDR) targets to estimate a subspace from data that contains all information sufficient to explain a dependent variable. Ample approaches exist to SDR, some of the most recent of which…
Many existing methods for low-light image enhancement (LLIE) based on Retinex theory ignore important factors that affect the validity of this theory in digital imaging, such as noise, quantization error, non-linearity, and dynamic range…
In this second part of a series we attempt to construct an empirical model that can mimick all experimental observations made regarding the role of an alternative interleaved scan pattern in STEM imaging on the beam damage in a specific…
Low-light image enhancement (LLE) aims to improve the visual quality of images captured in poorly lit conditions, which often suffer from low brightness, low contrast, noise, and color distortions. These issues hinder the performance of…
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) holds significant importance in clinical diagnosis and neuroscience research. However, conventional model-based fitting methods often suffer from sensitivity to noise, leading to decreased accuracy in…
For multi-input and multi-output (MIMO) channels, the optimal channel estimation (CE) based on linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) requires three-dimensional (3D) filtering. However, the complexity is often prohibitive due to large…
Area spectral efficiency (ASE) was introduced as a metric to quantify the spectral utilization efficiency of cellular systems. Unlike other performance metrics, ASE takes into account the spatial property of cellular systems. In this paper,…
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) has been widely applied to measure bone mineral density (BMD) and soft-tissue composition of human body. However, the use of DEXA is greatly limited for low-Z materials such as soft tissues due to…
Significance: Diffuse in-vivo Flow Cytometry (DiFC) is an emerging fluorescence sensing method to non-invasively detect labeled circulating cells in-vivo. However, due to Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) constraints largely attributed to…
This paper presents TRACE, a tool to analyze the quality of 2D embeddings generated through dimensionality reduction techniques. Dimensionality reduction methods often prioritize preserving either local neighborhoods or global distances,…
