A new denoising algorithm using Fast Guided Filter and Discrete Wavelet Transform is proposed to remove Gaussian noise in an image. The Fast Guided Filter removes some part of the details in addition to noise. These details are estimated accurately and combined with the filtered image to get back the final denoised image. The proposed algorithm is compared with other existing filtering techniques such as Wiener filter, Non Local means filter and bilateral filter and it is observed that the performance of this algorithm is superior compared to the above mentioned Gaussian noise removal techniques. The resultant image obtained from this method is very good both from subjective and objective point of view. This algorithm has less computational complexity and preserves edges and other detail information in an image.

Omics data provide a plethora of quantifiable information that can potentially be used to identify biomarkers targeting the physiological processes and ecological phenomena of organisms. However, omics data have not been fully utilized because current prediction methods in biomarker construction are susceptible to data multidimensionality and noise. We developed OmicSense, a quantitative prediction method that uses a mixture of Gaussian distributions as the probability distribution, yielding the most likely objective variable predicted for each biomarker.

Lock-in amplifiers (LIAs) are critical tools in precision measurement, particularly for applications involving weak signals obscured by noise. Advances in signal processing algorithms and hardware synthesis have enabled accurate signal extraction, even in extremely noisy environments, making LIAs indispensable in sensor applications for healthcare, industry, and other services. For instance, the electrical impedance measurement of the human body, organs, tissues, and cells, known as bioelectrical impedance, is commonly used in biomedical and healthcare applications because it is non-invasive and relatively inexpensive.

To improve the performance of Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) multi-label systems, the multi-label network structure needs to be quickly located and optimized. A multi-label location measurement method based on the NLM-Harris algorithm is proposed in this paper. Firstly, multi-label geometric distribution images are obtained through a label image acquisition system of a multi-label semi-physical simulation platform with two vertical Charge-Coupled Device (CCD) cameras, and Gaussian noise is added to the image to simulate thermoelectric interference.

Convolutional neural networks have achieved excellent results in image denoising; however, there are still some problems: (1) The majority of single-branch models cannot fully exploit the image features and often suffer from the loss of information. (2) Most of the deep CNNs have inadequate edge feature extraction and saturated performance problems. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a two-branch convolutional image denoising network based on nonparametric attention and multiscale feature fusion, aiming to improve the denoising performance while better recovering the image edge and texture information.

Laser-based systems, essential in diverse applications, demand accurate geometric calibration to ensure precise performance. The calibration process of the system requires establishing a reliable relationship between input parameters and the corresponding 3D description of the outgoing laser beams. The quality of the calibration depends on the quality of the dataset of measured laser lines.
