Wavelength encoding spectral imaging based on the combination of deeply learned filters and an RGB camera.

Hyperspectral imaging is a critical tool for gathering spatial-spectral information in various scientific research fields. As a result of improvements in spectral reconstruction algorithms, significant progress has been made in reconstructing hyperspectral images from commonly acquired RGB images. However, due to the limited input, reconstructing spectral information from RGB images is ill-posed.

Reliable image dehazing by NeRF.

Image dehazing is a typical low-level visual task. With the continuous improvement of network performance and the introduction of various prior knowledge, the ability of image dehazing is becoming stronger. However, the existing dehazing methods have problems such as the inability to obtain real shooting datasets, unreliable dehazing processes, and the difficulty to deal with complex lighting scenes.

Nighttime Image Dehazing by Render.

Nighttime image dehazing presents unique challenges due to the unevenly distributed haze caused by the color change of artificial light sources. This results in multiple interferences, including atmospheric light, glow, and direct light, which make the complex scattering haze interference difficult to accurately distinguish and remove. Additionally, obtaining pairs of high-definition data for fog removal at night is a difficult task.

Temperature measurements in the freezing supercooled water droplet by utilizing molecular tagging thermometry technique.

In the present study, we report novel methods to achieve accurate temperature measurements inside the water droplet at its supercooled state as well as during its freezing process. The temperature measurements were based on the molecular tagging thermometry technique. In order to maintain the nonfreezing state of the phosphorescent tracer complex aqueous solution at a subfreezing temperature, a double-layer temperature control container was designed and fabricated.

Quantification of unsteady heat transfer and phase changing process inside small icing water droplets.

We report progress made in our recent effort to develop and implement a novel, lifetime-based molecular tagging thermometry (MTT) technique to quantify unsteady heat transfer and phase changing process inside small icing water droplets pertinent to wind turbine icing phenomena. The lifetime-based MTT technique was used to achieve temporally and spatially resolved temperature distribution measurements within small, convectively cooled water droplets to quantify unsteady heat transfer within the small water droplets in the course of convective cooling process. The transient behavior of phase changing process within small icing water droplets was also revealed clearly by using the MTT technique.
