Scattering within biological samples limits the imaging depth and the resolution in microscopy. We present a prior and regularization approach for blind deconvolution algorithms to correct the influence of scattering to increase the imaging depth and resolution. The effect of the prior is demonstrated on a three-dimensional image stack of a zebrafish embryo captured with a selective plane illumination microscope. Blind deconvolution algorithms model the recorded image as a convolution between the distribution of fluorophores and a point spread function (PSF). Our prior uses image information from adjacent z-planes to estimate the unknown blur in tissue. The increased size of the PSF due to the cascading effect of scattering in deeper tissue is accounted for by a depth adaptive regularizer model. In a zebrafish sample, we were able to extend the point in depth, where scattering has a significant effect on the image quality by around 30???m.

Depth Prediction Improvement for Near-Field iToF Lidar in Low-Speed Motion State.
Sensors (Basel)
December 2024
Department of Electronic & Computer Engineer, University of Limerick, V94 T9PX Limerick, Ireland.
Current deep learning-based phase unwrapping techniques for iToF Lidar sensors focus mainly on static indoor scenarios, ignoring motion blur in dynamic outdoor scenarios. Our paper proposes a two-stage semi-supervised method to unwrap ambiguous depth maps affected by motion blur in dynamic outdoor scenes. The method trains on static datasets to learn unwrapped depth map prediction and then adapts to dynamic datasets using continuous learning methods.

However, acquiring high-quality spatial images without knowing the point spread function (PSF) at multiple depths or physically improving system performance is challenging. We propose an adaptive multi-layer photoacoustic image fusion (AMPIF) approach based on blind deconvolution and registration.

Background: Egg-based inactivated quadrivalent seasonal influenza vaccine (eIIV4), cell culture-based inactivated quadrivalent seasonal influenza vaccine (ccIIV4), and recombinant haemagglutinin (HA)-based quadrivalent seasonal influenza vaccine (RIV4) have been licensed for use in the USA. In this study, we used antigen-specific serum proteomics analysis to assess how the molecular composition and qualities of the serological antibody repertoires differ after seasonal influenza immunisation by each of the three vaccines and how different vaccination platforms affect the HA binding affinity and breadth of the serum antibodies that comprise the polyclonal response.
Methods: In this comparative, prospective, observational cohort study, we included female US health-care personnel (mean age 47·6 years [SD 8]) who received a single dose of RIV4, eIIV4, or ccIIV4 during the 2018-19 influenza season at Baylor Scott & White Health (Temple, TX, USA).
Multi-frame blind deconvolution using X-ray microscope images of an in-plane rotating sample.

We propose a multi-frame blind deconvolution method using an in-plane rotating sample optimized for X-ray microscopy, where the application of existing deconvolution methods is technically difficult. Untrained neural networks are employed as the reconstruction algorithm to enable robust reconstruction against stage motion errors caused by the in-plane rotation of samples. From demonstration experiments using full-field X-ray microscopy with advanced Kirkpatrick-Baez mirror optics at SPring-8, a spatial resolution of 34 nm (half period) was successfully achieved by removing the wavefront aberration and improving the apparent numerical aperture.

This Letter investigates the influence of source motion on the performance of the ray-based blind deconvolution algorithm (RBD). RBD is used to estimate channel impulse responses and source signals from opportunistic sources such as shipping vessels but was derived under a stationary source assumption. A theoretical correction for Doppler from a simplified moving source model is used to quantify the biases in estimated arrival angles and travel times from RBD.
