The simulation of multi-layer rough surfaces is an indispensable step in passive radiation imaging, to which little attention has been paid so far. Based on the existing model of brightness temperature tracing described in our recent works, diffused transmission of the bottom layer is taken into account in the improved model which is presented in this paper. Then, a method called multi-layer br...

optical coherence tomography (oct) uses the spatial and temporal coherence properties of optical waves backscattered from a tissue sample to form an image. an inherent characteristic of coherent imaging is the presence of speckle noise. in this study we use a new ensemble framework which is a combination of several multi-layer perceptron (mlp) neural networks to denoise oct images. the noise is...

A procedure for estimating directional wave spectra from an array of wave probes based on the Maximum Entropy Method (MEM) is developed in the present paper. The MEM approach yields an angular spreading function at each frequency band consistent with the input crossspectral density matrix. The method is evaluated using numerical simulations of directional sea states. The MEM is also used to ana...
