A method which is useful for obtaining superresolved imaging in a digital lensless Fourier holographic configuration is presented. By placing a diffraction grating between the input object and the CCD recording device, additional high-order spatial-frequency content of the object spectrum is directed towards the CCD. Unlike other similar methods, the recovery of the different band pass images i...

Along with the explosive growth of the Web has come a great increase in on-line scholarly literature. More and more researchers are turning to their computers for the latest results in their field. Not only is Web retrieval usually faster than a walk to the library, but the information obtained from the Web is generally more current than what appears in printed publications. The increasing prop...

Three-dimensional printing (3DP) is a rapid-prototyping technology that uses digital model file to construct an object through layer printing. This novel widely used in aerospace, medicine, architecture and industrial applications. However, the pharmaceutical applications of 3DP remain early stages, industry expected experience revolution 3DP. Herein, recent research progress 3D-printed medicin...

Recently, global features aggregated from local convolutional features of the convolutional neural network have shown to be much more effective in comparison with hand-crafted features for image retrieval. However, the global feature might not effectively capture the relevance between the query object and reference images in the object instance search task, especially when the query object is r...

In this work a novel point diffraction interferometer based on a variable liquid crystal wave plate (LCWP) has been implemented. The LCWP consists of a 3x3 cm(2) monopixel cell with parallel alignment. The monopixel cell was manufactured such that the electrode covers the entire surface except in a centered circular area of 50 μm of diameter. This circle acts as a point perturbation which diffr...

The quality of coherent images computed from digital holography or heterodyne array data is sensitive to phase errors of the reference and/or object beams. A number of algorithms exist for correcting phase errors in or very near the hologram plane. In the case of phase errors introduced a nonnegligible distance away from hologram plane, the resulting imagery exhibits anisoplanatism. A feature o...

Digital image correlation (DIC) is an optical-numerical full-field displacement measuring technique, which is nowadays widely used in the domain of experimental mechanics. The technique is based on a comparison between pictures taken during loading of an object. For an optimal use of the method, the object of interest has to be covered with painted speckles. In the present paper, a comparison i...

We present an image recovery approach to improve amplitude and phase reconstruction from single shot digital holograms, using iterative reconstruction with alternating updates. This approach allows the flexibility to apply different priors to amplitude and phase, improves phase reconstruction in image areas with low amplitudes, and does not require phase unwrapping for regularization. Phantom s...
