Recently, chiral structured illumination microscopy has been proposed to image fluorescent domains at sub-wavelength resolution. Chiral is based on the combination of microscopy, fluorescence-detected circular dichroism, and optical chirality engineering. Since dichroism natural molecules typically weak, differential fluorescence also weak can be easily buried by noise, hampering fidelity recon...

An illumination irnagc, which is a part of intrinsic images, represents the effect of a lighting condition of thc sccnc. To propcrly handlc illumination cffccts such as cast-shadows in the input image, image manipulation using thc illumination imagc is only natural, since it describes variation of lighting effects from a rcflcctancc imagc which can bc considered as an image under the standard i...

This report describes the detailed procedures for Western blot analysis using fluorescent antibodies. After electrophoresis and subsequent electroblotting, the fluorescent-labeled antibodies were visible upon ultraviolet illumination of the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes and could then be photographed to give an accurate record of the blots. Fluorescent labeling allows for photographi...

Cameras are excellent sensors in robotic systems. However, a camera being extreme sensitive to illumination variation restricts its capability. In this paper, color image segmentation of a camera influenced by varying light illumination is studied for extending camera’s capability in the future. The influence of an image captured by camera due to varying light illumination is analyzed. The comp...

The design of BLU for LCD devices, whose goal is to achieve uniform illumination and high luminance across the LCD surface, requries an assistance of illumination design programs. The goal of this paper is to develop a design and analysis tool to model an efficient BLU. The rendering techniques traditionally used in the field of computer graphics are the usual tools of choice to analyze BLU. An...

In this paper, we introduce a method for recovering an illumination distribution of a scene from image brightness inside shadows cast by an object of known shape in the scene. In a natural illumination condition, a scene includes both direct and indirect illumination distributed in a complex way, and it is often difficult to recover an illumination distribution from image brightness observed on...

Surface properties provide useful information for identifying objects and interacting with them. Effective utilization of this information, however, requires that the perception of object surface properties be relatively constant across changes in illumination and changes in object shape. Such constancy has been studied separately for changes in these factors. Here we ask whether the separate s...
