This paper proposes an imaging technique to remove strong reflections from specular surfaces using polarization characteristics combined with light field imaging. Firstly, the correct strong reflection region is found by studying the reflected light characteristics, and the strong reflection region highlights are filtered out using Stokes parameters based on polarization information. Then, a system of microlens arrays with different transmittances was built for imaging, and the system was image-corrected to enable more information about the scene to be captured.

Objective: X-ray photon-counting detectors (PCDs) have recently gained popularity due to their capabilities in energy discrimination power, noise suppression, and resolution refinement. The latest extremity photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) scanner leverages these advantages for tissue characterization, material decomposition, beam hardening correction, and metal artifact reduction. However, technical challenges such as charge splitting and pulse pileup can distort the energy spectrum and compromise image quality.

Background: The non-ablative 1940-nm laser induces controlled thermal damage at superficial depths without ablating the epidermis.
Objective: We evaluated a new 1940-nm fractional diode laser for improving pigmentation and skin texture.
Materials And Methods: Participants with mild to severe benign pigmented lesions received up to three laser treatments.

Feature matching in computer vision is crucial but challenging in weakly textured scenes due to the lack of pattern repetition. We introduce the SwinMatcher feature matching method, aimed at addressing the issues of low matching quantity and poor matching precision in weakly textured scenes. Given the inherently significant local characteristics of image features, we employ a local self-attention mechanism to learn from weakly textured areas, maximally preserving the features of weak textures.
