An extension of the fusion of interpolated frames superresolution (FIF SR) method to perform SR in the presence of atmospheric optical turbulence is presented. The goal of such processing is to improve the performance of imaging systems impacted by turbulence. We provide an optical transfer function analysis that illustrates regimes where significant degradation from both aliasing and turbulence may be present in imaging systems. This analysis demonstrates the potential need for simultaneous SR and turbulence mitigation (TM). While the FIF SR method was not originally proposed to address this joint restoration problem, we believe it is well suited for this …

Lung segmentation plays a crucial role in computer-aided diagnosis using Chest Radiographs (CRs). We implement a U-Net architecture for lung segmentation in CRs across multiple publicly available datasets. We utilize a private dataset with 160 CRs provided by the Riverain Medical Group for training purposes. A publicly available dataset provided by the Japanese Radiological Scientific Technology (JRST) is used for testing. The active shape model-based results would serve as the ground truth for both these datasets. In addition, we also study the performance of our algorithm on a publicly available Shenzhen dataset which contains 566 CRs with manually segmented lungs …

Plasmodium malaria is a parasitic protozoan that causes malaria in humans. Computer aided detection of Plasmodium is a research area attracting great interest. In this paper, we study the performance of various machine learning and deep learning approaches for the detection of Plasmodium on cell images from digital microscopy. We make use of a publicly available dataset composed of 27,558 cell images with equal instances of parasitized (contains Plasmodium) and uninfected (no Plasmodium) cells. We randomly split the dataset into groups of 80% and 20% for training and testing purposes, respectively. We apply color constancy and spatially resample all images …
