Deconvolution maps to division in the Fourier co-domain. This allows deconvolution to be easily applied with experimental data that are subject to a Fourier transform. An example is NMR spectroscopy where the data are recorded in the time domain, but analyzed in the frequency domain. Division of the time-domain data by an exponential function ...
The Richardson–Lucy algorithm, also known as Lucy–Richardson deconvolution, is an iterative procedure for recovering an underlying image that has been blurred by a known point spread function. It was named after William Richardson and Leon B. Lucy , who described it independently.
In optics and signal processing, wavefront coding refers to the use of a phase modulating element in conjunction with deconvolution to extend the depth of field of a digital imaging system such as a video camera. Wavefront coding falls under the broad category of computational photography as a technique to enhance the depth of field.
The point spread function (PSF) describes the response of a focused optical imaging system to a point source or point object. A more general term for the PSF is the system's impulse response; the PSF is the impulse response or impulse response function (IRF) of a focused optical imaging system. The PSF in many contexts can be thought of as the ...
The optical transfer function (OTF) of an optical system such as a camera, microscope, human eye, or projector is a scale-dependent description of their imaging contrast.
Adaptive optics (AO) is a technique of precisely deforming a mirror in order to compensate for light distortion. It is used in astronomical telescopes [1] and laser communication systems to remove the effects of atmospheric distortion, in microscopy, [2] optical fabrication [3] and in retinal imaging systems [4] to reduce optical aberrations.
HT is also known as optical diffraction tomography. The combination of holography and rotational scanning allows long-term, label-free, live-cell recordings. Non-invasive optical nanoscopy can achieve such a lateral resolution by using a quasi-2π-holographic detection scheme and complex deconvolution. The spatial frequencies of the imaged cell ...
The usual discussion of super-resolution involved conventional imagery of an object by an optical system. But modern technology allows probing the electromagnetic disturbance within molecular distances of the source [ 6 ] which has superior resolution properties, see also evanescent waves and the development of the new super lens .
