The reconstruction of a three-dimensional image of a specimen from a set of electron micrographs reduces, under certain assumptions about the imaging process in the microscope, to the mathematical problem of reconstructing a density distribution from a set of its plane projections.In the absence of noise we can formulate a purely geometrical criterion, which, for a general object, fixes the resolution attainable from a given finite number of views in terms of the size of the object. For simplicity we take the ideal case of projections collected by a series of m equally spaced tilts about a single axis.

Three dimensional microscopic structures play an important role in the understanding of various biological and physiological phenomena. Structural details of neurons, such as the density, caliber and volumes of dendrites, are important in understanding physiological and pathological functioning of nervous systems. Even so, many of the widely used stains in biology and neurophysiology are absorbing stains, such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP), and yet most of the iterative, constrained 3D optical image reconstruction research has concentrated on fluorescence microscopy. It is clear that iterative, constrained 3D image reconstruction methodologies are needed for transmitted light brightfield (TLB) imaging as well. One of the difficulties in doing so, in the past, has been in determining the point spread function of the system.We have been developing several variations of iterative, constrained image reconstruction algorithms for TLB imaging. Some of our early testing with one of them was reported previously. These algorithms are based on a linearized model of TLB imaging.

Abstract For a robust three-dimensional video transmission through error prone channels, an efficient multiple description coding for multi-view video based on the correlation of spatial polyphase transformed subsequences (CSPT_MDC_MVC) is proposed in this article. The input multi-view video sequence is first separated into four subsequences by spatial polyphase transform and then grouped into two descriptions. With the correlation of macroblocks in corresponding subsequence positions, these subsequences should not be coded in completely the same way. In each description, one subsequence is directly coded by the Joint Multi-view Video Coding (JMVC) encoder and the other subsequence is classified into four sets. According to the classification, the indirectly coding subsequence selectively employed the prediction mode and the prediction vector of the counter directly coding subsequence, which reduces the bitrate consumption and the coding complexity of multiple description coding for multi-view video. On the decoder side, the gradient-based directional interpolation is employed to improve the side reconstructed quality. The effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm is verified by experiments in the JMVC coding platform.

JPEG2000 algorithm has been developed based on the DWT techniques, which have shown how the results achieved in different areas in information technology can be applied to enhance the performance. Lossy image compression algorithms sacrifice perfect image reconstruction in favor of decreased storage requirements. Wavelets have become a popular technology for information redistribution for high-performance image compression algorithms. Lossy compression algorithms sacrifice perfect image reconstruction in favor of improved compression rates while minimizing image quality lossy.

Gas turbine performance is highly dependent on the quality of the manufactured parts. Manufacturing variations in the parts can significantly alter the performance, especially efficiency and thus SFC. The legacy process is to accept variations within predefined profile tolerance limits and a few other qualitative parameters, mostly at a few, key two-dimensional aerofoil sections. With the widespread use of White light scans and other similar three-dimensional scans, this has improved to include the three-dimensional profile. The future however may lie with performance based quality assessment of manufactured parts, combined with quantitative surface quality assessment to implement an intelligent screening process for the parts. The adjoint method, typically used for shape optimization is adapted to provide a prediction of the impact on performance due to manufacturing variations. The work presented outlines a three stage quality assessment process for manufactured parts, involving three-dimensional profile tolerance based screening, followed by a surface curvature based screening and finally an Adjoint based performance prediction.
