Photoacoustic microscopy has demonstrated outstanding performance in high-resolution functional imaging. However, in the process of photoacoustic imaging, the photoacoustic signals will be polluted by inevitable background noise. Besides, the image q...
Endoscopic optical coherence tomography (OCT) possesses the capability to non-invasively image internal lumens; however, it is susceptible to saturation artifacts arising from robust reflective structures. In this study, we introduce an innovative de...
Chlorophyll a (Chl-a) in lakes serves as an effective marker for assessing algal biomass and the nutritional level of lakes, and its observation is feasible through remote sensing methods. HJ-1 (Huanjing-1) satellite, deployed in 2008, incorporates a...
Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are bio-inspired neural networks that - to an extent - mimic the workings of our brains. In a similar fashion, event-based vision sensors try to replicate a biological eye as closely as possible. In this work, we integr...
Quantitative phase contrast microscopy (QPCM) can realize high-quality imaging of sub-organelles inside live cells without fluorescence labeling, yet it requires at least three phase-shifted intensity images. Herein, we combine a novel convolutional ...
A fiber Bragg grating (FBG) based three-dimensional (3D) force sensor for a humanoid prosthetic hand is designed, which can precisely detect 3D force and compensate for ambient temperature. FBG was encapsulated in polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) for forc...
The collective dynamics in neural networks is essential for information processing and has attracted much interest on the application in artificial intelligence. Synchronization is one of the most dominant phenomenon in the collective dynamics of neu...
In vivo imaging and accurate identification of amyloid-β (Aβ) plaque are crucial in Alzheimer's disease (AD) research. In this work, we propose to combine the coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy, a powerful detection technology fo...
Intravital microscopy in small animals growingly contributes to the visualization of short- and long-term mammalian biological processes. Miniaturized fluorescence microscopy has revolutionized the observation of live animals' neural circuits. The te...
Solving the inverse problem is a major challenge in contemporary nano-optics. However, frequently not just a possible solution needs to be found but rather the solution that accommodates constraints imposed by the problem at hand. To select the most ...
