The multimodality cell segmentation challenge: toward universal solutions

Sahand Jamal Rahi, Vojislav Gligorovski, Marco Labagnara, Jun Ma, Maxime Emmanuel Scheder, Xin Yang, Yao Zhang, Bo Wang, Yixin Wang, Lin Han

Cell segmentation is a critical step for quantitative single-cell analysis in microscopy images. Existing cell segmentation methods are often tailored to specific modalities or require manual interventions to specify hyper-parameters in different experimen ...

Breakdown development in a nanosecond pulsed dielectric barrier discharge in humid air in plane-to-plane geometry

Ivo Furno, Xin Yang, Lorenzo Ibba

We used the ns electric field induced second harmonic (EFISH) generation diagnostic to measure the electric field evolution in a 200 ns pulse, dielectric barrier, plane-to-plane discharge in humid air, on the time scale shorter than the laser pulse duratio ...

Arctic warming by abundant fine sea salt aerosols from blowing snow

Julia Schmale, Nora Bergner, Jian Wang, Xin Yang, Markus Frey

The Arctic warms nearly four times faster than the global average, and aerosols play an increasingly important role in Arctic climate change. In the Arctic, sea salt is a major aerosol component in terms of mass concentration during winter and spring. Howe ...

AIM 2019 Challenge on Image Extreme Super-Resolution: Methods and Results

Majed El Helou, Liying Lu, Ruofan Zhou, Xin Yang, Wei Li, Radu Timofte, Jia Yu, Muhammad Haris, Peng Yi, Jiayi Ma

This paper reviews the AIM 2019 challenge on extreme image super-resolution, the problem of restoring of rich details in a low resolution image. Compared to previous, this challenge focuses on an extreme upscaling factor, x16, and employs the novel DIVerse ...

Imaging blood cells through scattering biological tissue using speckle scanning microscopy

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Ye Pu, Xin Yang

We demonstrate imaging of blood cells enclosed in chicken skin tissue using speckle scanning microscopy (SSM). Clear images of multiple cells were obtained with subcellular resolution and good image fidelity, provided that the object dimension was smaller ...

Optical microscopy for imaging through scattering media

Xin Yang

Optical microscopy has been widely used in the life sciences and biological research for several decades. It possesses many advantages over x-ray radiography, computed tomography, ultrasound imaging and magnetic resonance imaging, in terms of being low cos ...

Tissue and cellular imaging

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Ye Pu, Chia-Lung Hsieh, Xin Yang

Systems and methods for imaging ear tissue include: directing illumination radiation to pass through an intact biological structure and be incident on ear tissue that does not include an exogenous fluorophore, at a plurality of locations, the illumination ...

Two-photon microscopy of the mouse cochlea in situ for cellular diagnosis

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Ye Pu, Chia-Lung Hsieh, Xin Yang

Sensorineural hearing loss is the most common type of hearing loss worldwide, yet the underlying cause is typically unknown because the inner ear cannot be biopsied today without destroying hearing, and intracochlear cells have not been imaged with resolut ...

Three-dimensional scanning microscopy through thin turbid media

Demetri Psaltis, Ye Pu, Ye Pu, Chia-Lung Hsieh, Xin Yang

We demonstrate three-dimensional imaging through a thin turbid medium using digital phase conjugation of the second harmonic signal emitted from a beacon nanoparticle. The digitally phase-conjugated focus scans the volume in the vicinity of its initial pos ...
