Defocused images removal of axial overlapping scattering particles by using three-dimensional nonlinear diffusion based on digital holography
We propose a three-dimensional nonlinear diffusion method to implement the similar autofocusing function of multiple micro-objects and simultaneously remove the defocused images, which can distinguish the locations of certain sized scattering particles that are overlapping along z-axis. It is applied to all of the reconstruction slices that are generated from the captured hologram after each back propagation. For certain small sized particles, the maxima of maximum gradient magnitude of each reconstruction slice appears at the ground truth z position after applying the proposed scheme when the reconstruction range along z-axis is sufficiently long and the reconstruction depth spacing is sufficiently fine. Therefore, the reconstructed image at ground truth z position is remained, while the defocused images are diffused out. The results demonstrated that the proposed scheme can diffuse out the defocused images which are 20 um away from the ground truth z position in spite of that several scattering particles with different diameters are completely overlapping along z-axis with a distance of 800 um when the hologram pixel pitch is 2 um. It also demonstrated that the sparsity distribution of the ground truth z slice cannot be affected by the sparsity distribution of corresponding defocused images when the diameter of the particle is not more than 35um and the reconstruction depth spacing is not less than 20 um.

Missing Cone Artifacts Removal in ODT using Unsupervised Deep Learning in Projection Domain
Optical diffraction tomography (ODT) produces three dimensional distribution of refractive index (RI) by measuring scattering fields at various angles. Although the distribution of RI index is highly informative, due to …

Artificial lights commonly leave strong lens flare artifacts on images captured at night. Nighttime flare not only affects the visual quality but also degrades the performance of vision algorithms. Existing flare removal…
Flare RemovalBlurry-Edges: Photon-Limited Depth Estimation from Defocused Boundaries
Extracting depth information from photon-limited, defocused images is challenging because depth from defocus (DfD) relies on accurate estimation of defocus blur, which is fundamentally sensitive to image noise. We presen…
