Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy01:26

Phase Contrast and Differential Interference Contrast Microscopy

14.8K
Phase-Contrast Microscopes
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...

¹³C NMR: Distortionless Enhancement by Polarization Transfer (DEPT)

1.8K
When proton-coupled carbon-13 spectra are simplified by a broadband proton decoupling technique, structural information about the coupled protons is lost. Distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer (DEPT) is a technique that provides information on the number of hydrogens attached to each carbon in a molecule. While the DEPT experiment utilizes complex pulse sequences, the pulse delay and flip angle are specifically manipulated. The resulting signals have different phases depending on...

Deconvolution01:20

Deconvolution

650
Deconvolution, also known as inverse filtering, is the process of extracting the impulse response from known input and output signals. This technique is vital in scenarios where the system's characteristics are unknown, and they must be inferred from the observable signals.
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...

Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

9.2K
Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

    Area of Science:

    • Computer Vision
    • Image Processing

    Background:

    • Intrinsic image decomposition is crucial for image analysis but is an ill-posed problem.
    • Existing contrast enhancement methods can introduce artifacts or have limitations.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To propose a novel intrinsic image decomposition model for effective contrast enhancement.
    • To introduce priors for reflectance and illumination layers to ensure reliable decomposition.

    Main Methods:

    • Regularizing the reflectance layer using a weighted ℓ1 norm constraint based on color similarity.
    • Applying a piecewise smoothness constraint to the illumination layer.
    • Solving the model using the Split Bregman algorithm and performing decomposition on the HSV value channel.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed method achieves reliable decomposition by constraining both reflectance and illumination layers.
    • Contrast enhancement is performed by adjusting the illumination layer, minimizing color artifacts.
    • Experimental results show superior or comparable performance against state-of-the-art methods.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed intrinsic image decomposition approach effectively enhances image contrast.
    • The method demonstrates robustness across a wide variety of images.
    • It offers a reliable and efficient solution for image contrast enhancement.
