Single-image signal-to-noise ratio estimation.
A method for estimating the signal-to-noise ratio from a single image is presented in this paper. The autocorrelation-based technique requires that image details be correlated over distances of a few pixels, while the noise is assumed to be uncorrelated from pixel to pixel. The latter is shown to be a good approximation in the case of scanning electron microscope (SEM) images provided that the ...
متن کاملSignal-to-noise ratio and signal-to-noise efficiency in SMASH imaging.
A general theory of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in simultaneous acquisition of spatial harmonics (SMASH) imaging is presented, and the predictions of the theory are verified in imaging experiments and in numerical simulations. In a SMASH image, multiple lines of k-space are generated simultaneously through combinations of magnetic resonance signals in a radiofrequency coil array. Here, effects ...
متن کاملSignal to Noise Ratio Analysis in Virtual Source Array Imaging
We consider correlation-based imaging of a reflector located on one side of a passive array where the medium is homogeneous. On the other side of the array the illumination by remote impulsive sources goes through a strongly scattering medium. It has been shown in [J. Garnier and G. Papanicolaou, Inverse Problems, 28 (2012), 075002] that migrating the cross correlations of the passive array giv...
متن کاملSignal to Noise Ratio in Lensless Compressive Imaging
We analyze the signal to noise ratio (SNR) in a lensless compressive imaging (LCI) architecture. The architecture consists of a sensor of a single detecting element and an aperture assembly of an array of programmable elements. LCI can be used in conjunction with compressive sensing to capture images in a compressed form of compressive measurements. In this paper, we perform SNR analysis of the...
متن کاملSignal-to-Noise Ratio Estimation in Passive Correlation-Based Imaging
We consider here the problem of imaging using passive incoherent recordings due to ambient noise sources. The first step towards imaging in this configuration is the computation of the cross-correlations of the recorded signals. These cross-correlations are computed between pairs of sensors (receivers) and they contain very important information about the background medium. Indeed, it was shown...
