Residuals and Least-Squares Property

Residuals and Least-Squares Property

The vertical distance between the actual value of y and the estimated value of y. In other words, it measures the vertical distance between the actual data point and the predicted point on the line
If the observed data point lies above the line, the residual is positive, and the line underestimates the actual data value for y. If the observed data point lies below the line, the residual is negative, and the line overestimates the actual data value for y.
The process of fitting the best-fit...

Difference from Background: Limit of Detection

Difference from Background: Limit of Detection

The limit of detection (LOD) is the smallest amount of analyte that can be distinguished from the background noise. The LOD value corresponds to the concentration at which the analyte signal is three times larger than the standard deviation of the blank signal. Below this value, the analyte signal cannot be differentiated from the background noise. It is calculated by dividing the calibration slope by 3 times the standard deviation of the blank signals.
The LOD indicates the presence or absence...

Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy

Imaging Biological Samples with Optical Microscopy

Optical microscopy uses optic principles to provide detailed images of samples. Antonie van Leeuwenhoek designed the first compound optical microscope in the 17th century to visualize blood cells, bacteria, and yeast cells. In 1830, Joseph Jackson Lister created an essentially modern light microscope. The 20th century saw the development of microscopes with enhanced magnification and resolution.
In optical microscopy, the specimen to be viewed is placed on a glass slide and clipped on the stage...

Super-resolution Fluorescence Microscopy

Super-resolution Fluorescence Microscopy

Super-resolution fluorescence microscopy (SRFM) provides a better resolution than conventional fluorescence microscopy by reducing the point spread function (PSF). PSF is the light intensity distribution from a point that causes it to appear blurred. Due to PSF, each fluorescing point appears bigger than its actual size, and it is the PSF interference of nearby fluorophores that causes the blurred image. Various approaches to achieving higher resolution through SRFM have recently been developed.

Background:

Diffuse optical tomography (DOT) inverse problems are nonlinear and ill-posed.
Tikhonov-type regularization is commonly used but parameter selection is empirical.

To propose an automated method for optimal selection of the regularization parameter in DOT.
To compare the proposed method with the generalized cross-validation (GCV) method.
To evaluate the performance of the regularization parameter selection methods.

Main Methods:

Developed an automated regularization parameter selection method based on the regularized minimal residual method (MRM).
Compared MRM-based method with generalized cross-validation (GCV) using numerical and gelatin phantom data.
Assessed the quality of reconstructed optical images based on the selected regularization parameters.

Main Results:

The MRM-based method successfully identified optimal regularization parameters.
MRM demonstrated superior performance in selecting regularization parameters compared to GCV.
The proposed method leads to improved reconstructed optical image quality.

Conclusions:

The regularized minimal residual method provides an effective automated approach for selecting regularization parameters in DOT.
This automated selection enhances the reliability and accuracy of DOT imaging.
The MRM-based method is a promising alternative to empirical or traditional parameter selection techniques.
