Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) reconstructs high-resolution images through multiple iterations on a large number of sub-images at different angles, a process that is time-consuming. For a long time, various methods for optimizing the efficiency of FPM based on the acquisition process and algorithms have been proposed. However, there has been no specific analysis of the impact that the sub-images involved in the reconstruction have on the final result.

Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is a technique to reconstruct a high-resolution image from a set of low-resolution images captured with different illumination angles, which is susceptible to ambient noise, system noise, and weak currents when acquiring large-angle images, especially dark field images. To effectively address the noise problem, we propose an adaptive denoising algorithm based on a LED-based temporal variant noise model. Taking the results of blank slide samples as the reference value of noise, and analyzing the distribution of noise, we establish a statistical model for temporal variant noise, describing the relationship between temporal noise and LED spatial location.

The research of scattering imaging is of great significance to the development of various fields, but the existing scattering imaging methods are difficult to combine for the advantages of non-invasiveness, real-time imaging, and high quality. In this paper, a new, to our knowledge, scattering imaging technique is proposed that optimizes the traditional autocorrelation imaging technique by multi-stage complexity guidance and the initial acceleration module. We introduce the complexity difference index into the phase iterative recovery step for effective complexity guidance, and add the initial module based on error-reduction iteration to realize a fast startup.

Iterative phase retrieval algorithms are commonly used in computational techniques and optimization methods to obtain the reconstruction of objects hidden behind opaque scattering media. However, these methods are susceptible to converging to incorrect local minima, and the calculation results tend to be unstable. In this paper, a triple-correlation-based super-resolution imaging (TCSI) framework is proposed to achieve single-shot imaging of unknown objects hidden behind the scattering medium.

In this paper, self-modulated ghost imaging (SMGI) in a surrounded scattering medium is proposed. Different from traditional ghost imaging, SMGI can take advantage of the dynamic scattering medium that originally affects the imaging quality and generate pseudo-thermal light through the dynamic scattering of free particles' Brownian motion in the scattering environment for imaging. Theoretical analysis and simulation were used to establish the relationship between imaging quality and particle concentration.

Coded aperture snapshot spectral imaging (CASSI) aims to capture the high-dimensional (usually 3D) data cube using a 2D sensor in a single snapshot. Due to the ill-posed snapshot, the reconstruction results are not ideal. One feasible solution is to utilize additional information such as the panchromatic measurement in CASSI.

When dealing with outdoor hazy images, traditional image dehazing algorithms are often affected by the sky regions, resulting in appearing color distortions and detail loss in the restored image. Therefore, we proposed an optimized dark channel and haze-line priors method based on adaptive sky segmentation to improve the quality of dehazed images including sky areas. The proposed algorithm segmented the sky region of a hazy image by using the Gaussian fitting curve and prior information of sky color rules to calculate the adaptive threshold.

Lensless systems based on ptychographic imaging can simultaneously achieve a large field of view and high resolution while having the advantages of small size, portability, and low cost compared to traditional lensed imaging. However, lensless imaging systems are susceptible to environmental noise and have a lower resolution of individual images than lens-based imaging systems, which means that they require a longer time to obtain a good result. Therefore, in this paper, to improve the convergence rate and robustness of noise in lensless ptychographic imaging, we propose an adaptive correction method, in which we add an adaptive error term and noise correction term in lensless ptychographic algorithms to reach convergence faster and create a better suppression effect on both Gaussian noise and Poisson noise.

A Fourier ptychographic microscope (FPM) can obtain images with high resolution and a wide field of view (FOV). However, the time-consuming process of image acquisition and computation leads to low reconstruction efficiency. Therefore, we propose a state-multiplexed method through an optimized illumination pattern to accelerate FPM.

Considering angle diversity and synthetic aperture, Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) could address contradiction of high resolution and wide field of view. However, in the conventional FPM method, large capture quantity leads to poor efficiency. So, an efficient FPM method based on optimized pattern of LED angle illumination is proposed.

Dead time is an important parameter in time-to-digital converters, which is the significant time measure circuit. To reduce the dead time, this note proposes a new fine-time measurement circuit. In this configuration, two clocks having a phase difference of 180° are used to sample the signals passing through the delay chain, and their average is taken as the final measurement result.
