Hough-transform system with optical anamorphic preprocessing and digital postprocessing
Abstract:
A modification of the optical Hough transformer [Appl. Opt. 25, 2734-2738 (1986)] is proposed. An input image is optically preprocessed to obtain an anamorphic magnified image. The anamorphic magnification leads to improved accuracy of the output plane parameter theta determination by means of a simple version of a Hough transformer. Then, the output signal is digitally postprocessed to obtain subpixel resolution in the rho parameter dimension. A description of the method and the experimental results is presented.

Deconvolution involves several mathematical techniques to derive the impulse response. One common approach is polynomial division. In this method, the input and output sequences are treated as coefficients of...
Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy
In-phase-contrast microscopes, interference between light directly passing through a cell and light refracted by cellular components is used to create high-contrast, high-resolution images without staining. It is the oldest and simplest type of microscope that creates an image by altering the wavelengths of light rays passing through the specimen. Altered wavelength paths are created using an annular stop in the condenser. The annular stop produces a hollow cone of...

Convolution Properties II
The width property indicates that if the durations of input signals are T1 and T2, then the width of the output response equals the sum of both durations, irrespective of the shapes of the two functions. For instance, convolving two rectangular pulses with durations of 2 seconds and 1 second results in a function with a width of 3 seconds.
The area property asserts that the area under the...
