Optimising Aperture Shapes for Depth Estimation
[article]
2013
International Symposium on Vision, Modeling, and Visualization
The proposed mask optimisation procedure is applicable for different depth estimation scenarios. ...
This blur shape can be manipulated by introducing masks into the main lens aperture. We propose an intuitive criterion to design aperture patterns for depth estimation. ...
Depth estimation with optimised apertures on clean images is more accurate than with the reference masks in all cases. ...

Energy Procedia
By using a two-stage optimisation process we maximise the heat rate output of a four-parameter axisymmetric direct steam generation cavity receiver. ...
We show that a significant range of geometrical shapes show similar efficiencies while having different wall flux and temperature profiles. ...
Thermal emissions are here estimated using only two elements per cavity shape and constant temperature estimation for each of these. ...

Phase estimation for global defocus correction in optical coherence tomography
2018
2nd Canterbury Conference on OCT with Emphasis on Broadband Optical Sources
In this work we investigate three techniques for estimation of the non-linear phase present due to defocus in optical coherence tomography, and apply them with the angular spectrum method. ...
The estimated phase of a single en-face image is used to extrapolate the non-linear phase at all depths, which in the end can be used to correct the entire 3-D tomogram, and any other tomogram from the ...

Finally the technique is applied to finite rectangular notch defects of surface extents smaller than the diameter of the inspection coil (sub-aperture) over a range of frequencies. ...
The approach is used to characterise the depth of a sloped slot demonstrating good accuracy up to ~2.0 mm in depth over a broad range of sub-resonance frequencies, indicating applications in geometric ...

By optimising the depth and width of the mesh aperture size we have produced a device which will lead to both reduction and refinement in the use of animals in research, allowing the pre-screening of new ...
For optimal use, the device should be constructed from 105 μm aperture width, 63 μm depth, polyester mesh and the mites (irrespective of life stage) should be conditioned with no access to food for 3 weeks ...

An innovative, highly sensitive receiver system for the Square Kilometre Array Mid Radio Telescope
2016
Ground-based and Airborne Telescopes VI
SKA1-Mid (350 MHz -13.8 GHz with an option for an upper limit of ~24 GHz) will consist of 133 reflector antennas using an unblocked aperture, offset Gregorian configuration with an effective diameter of ...
The unblocked aperture results in increased aperture efficiency and lower side-lobe levels compared to a traditional on-axis configuration. ...
The sensitivity can be optimised for a given SLL by shaping the reflector system. Maximising the aperture efficiency does not, in general, correspond to maximising the receiving sensitivity. ...

Optical Society of America. Journal A: Optics, Image Science, and Vision
The corrected depth is thus estimated by An example of the corrected depth map is shown in Fig. 3(b) and (e), where the working range is within [886.8 933] mm away from the lens. ...
A typical correction of a depth map only accounts for 4-8% of the total RO-DfD computational time, hence it is suitable for real-time applications. ...
Introduction Depth from Defocus (DfD) and Depth from Focus (DfF) are methods for recovering 3dimensional (3D) shape of a scene. ...
