Polarimetric determination of glucose is known to be strongly affected by scattering in turbid media. Other effects like fluctuations of light source emission and sample absorption also deteriorate glucose predictability. This work presents a measurement setup using a real-time data processing method to address these problems. The approach uses the frequency-dependent intensity components created when the polarization of the incident light is periodically modulated by a Faraday rotator. The efficacy of the proposed method was verified experimentally for a glucose range of 0 - 500 mg/dl. It was shown that the approach reduces the prediction errors in slightly turbid media from 35.7 mg/dl down to 1.17 mg/dl. In a similar way, the glucose predictability for fluctuating light source emission was improved from ±16.16 mg/dl to ±1 mg/dl and for varying sample absorbance from ±15.69 mg/dl to ±1.23 mg/dl, respectively. Therefore, considerable improvement of robustness and reproducibility of glucose determination was demonstrated.

Considering the obvious application value in the field of minimally invasive and non-destructive clinical healthcare, we explore the challenge of wide-field imaging and recognition through cascaded complex scattering media, a topic that has been less researched, by realizing wide-field imaging and pathological screening through multimode fibers (MMF) and turbid media. To address the challenge of extracting features from chaotic and globally correlated speckles formed by transmitting images through cascaded complex scattering media, we establish a deep learning approach based on SMixerNet. By efficiently using the parameter-free matrix transposition, SMixerNet achieves a broad receptive field with less inductive bias through concise multi-layer perceptron (MLP).

Adverse weather conditions present a primary challenge for ground-based LiDAR imaging systems in outdoor applications. The use of polarization has been proposed as an effective filtering mechanism. However, the number of potential situations is large, complex and difficult to parameterize with accuracy.

Achieving high-fidelity image transmission through turbid media is a significant challenge facing both the AI and photonic/optical communities. While this capability holds promise for a variety of applications, including data transfer, neural endoscopy, and multi-mode optical fiber-based imaging, conventional deep learning methods struggle to capture the nuances of light propagation, leading to weak generalization and limited reconstruction performance. To address this limitation, we investigated the non-locality present in the reconstructed images and discovered that conventional deep learning methods rely on specific features extracted from the training dataset rather than meticulously reconstructing each pixel.

Spatially offset Raman spectroscopy (SORS) is a transformative method for probing subsurface chemical compositions in turbid media. This systematic study of Monte Carlo simulations provides closed-form characterizations of key SORS parameters, such as the distribution of spatial origins of collected Raman photons and optimal SORS geometry to selectively interrogate a subsurface region of interest. These results are unified across an extensive range of material properties by multiplying spatial dimensions by the medium's effective attenuation coefficient, which can be calculated when the absorption and reduced scattering coefficients are known from the literature or experimentation.
