Laser speckle contrast imaging (LSCI) is a widefield imaging technique that enables high spatiotemporal resolution measurement of blood flow. Laser coherence, optical aberrations, and static scattering effects restrict LSCI to relative and qualitative measurements. Multi-exposure speckle imaging (MESI) is a quantitative extension of LSCI that accounts for these factors but has been limited to post-acquisition analysis due to long data processing times. Here we propose and test a real-time quasi-analytic solution to fitting MESI data, using both simulated and real-world data from a mouse model of photothrombotic stroke. This rapid estimation of multi-exposure imaging (REMI) enables processing of full-frame MESI images at up to 8 Hz with negligible errors relative to time-intensive least-squares methods. REMI opens the door to real-time, quantitative measures of perfusion change using simple optical systems.

Metasurfaces have recently emerged as an ultra-compact solution to perform all-optical image processing, including phase contrast imaging. Most metasurfaces used in imaging processing applications operate over a restricted numerical aperture. This limitation imposes constraints on the discernible features that can be effectively visualized and consequently leads to the appearance of undesirable artifacts.

It is well known that ℓ1 minimization can be used to recover sufficiently sparse unknown signals in the compressive sensing field. The ℓp regularization method, a generalized version between the well-known ℓ1 regularization and the ℓ0 regularization, has been proposed for a sparser solution. In this paper, we derive several quasi-analytic thresholding representations for the ℓp(0 < p < 1) regularization.

Compression and lubrication of salt free polyelectrolyte microgel particles in highly compressed suspensions by counterion osmotic pressure.

The compression of polyelectrolyte microgel particles in a salt-free highly compressed colloid due to osmotic pressure outside of the particles due to counterions located there is studied for a model based on a quasi-analytic solution of the Poisson-Boltzmann equation and a model for the gel elasticity based on counterion osmotic pressure inside the particles and polymer elasticity (of entropic origin). It is found that for particles of radius of the order of a tenth of a micron, the counterion osmotic pressure should play a significant role in the compression of the particles, especially particles which do not have a corona (i.e.
