Imaging through single multimode fiber prevails its counterpart using single mode fiber bundle on spatial resolution limit and minimum radius. Current multimode fiber imaging suffers from fussy calibration, which can be reduced by recent developed compressive sensing scheme [ [L. V. Amitonova, Opt. Lett. 43, 5427 (2018)]. Experiments demonstrate improvement on depth of field by more than three orders of magnitude, together with robustness against macro fiber bending, which is vital to endoscopic applications.
Ghost imaging reconstructs the image based on the second-order correlation of the repeatedly measured light fields. When the observed object is moving, the consecutive sampling procedure leads to a motion blur in the reconstructed images. To overcome this defect, we propose a novel method of ghost imaging to obtain the motion information of moving object with a small number of measurements, in which the object could be regarded as relatively static. Our method exploits the idea of compressive sensing for a superior image reconstruction, combining with the low-order moments of the images to directly extract the motion information, which has the advantage of saving time and computation. With the gradual motion estimation and compensation during the imaging process, the experimental results show the proposed method could effectively overcome the motion blur, also possessing the advantage of reducing the necessary measurement number for each motion estimation and improving the reconstructed image quality.
In this study, we investigated the feasibility of using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) combined with a support vector machine (SVM) algorithm to discriminate hysteromyoma and cervical cancer from healthy volunteers rapidly. SERS spectra of serum samples were recorded from 30 hysteromyoma patients, 36 cervical cancer patients as well as 30 healthy subjects. SVM was used to establish the classification models, and three types of kernel functions, namely linear, polynomial, and Gaussian radial basis function (RBF), were utilized for comparison. When the polynomial kernel function was employed, the overall diagnostic accuracy for classifying the three groups could achieve 86.5%. In addition, when the optimal kernel function was selected, the diagnostic accuracy for identifying healthy versus hysteromyoma, healthy versus cervical cancer, and hysteromyoma versus cervical cancer reached 98.3%, 93.9%, and 90.9%, respectively. The current results indicate that serum SERS technology, together with the SVM algorithm, is expected to become a clinical tool for rapid screening of hysteromyoma and cervical cancer.
