Super-résolutionEn traitement du signal et en , la super-résolution désigne le processus qui consiste à améliorer la résolution spatiale, c'est-à-dire le niveau de détail, d'une image ou d'un système d'acquisition. Cela regroupe des méthodes matérielles qui visent à contourner les problèmes optiques et autres difficultés physiques rencontrées lors de l'acquisition d'image, ainsi que des techniques algorithmiques qui, à partir d'une ou de plusieurs images déjà capturées, créent une image de meilleure résolution.
ApertureIn optics, an aperture is a hole or an opening through which light travels. More specifically, the aperture and focal length of an optical system determine the cone angle of the bundle of rays that come to a focus in the . An optical system typically has many openings or structures that limit the ray bundles (ray bundles are also known as pencils of light). These structures may be the edge of a lens or mirror, or a ring or other fixture that holds an optical element in place, or may be a special element such as a diaphragm placed in the optical path to limit the light admitted by the system.
Transformation bilinéaireLa transformation bilinéaire est une méthode de traitement numérique du signal pour la conception de filtres numériques calqués sur des filtres analogiques. Elle permet le passage d'une représentation continue à une représentation discrète des filtres. La transformation bilinéaire est un cas particulier de transformation de Möbius. L'image de la droite imaginaire () est le cercle unité dans le plan complexe.
ApodizationIn signal processing, apodization (from Greek "removing the foot") is the modification of the shape of a mathematical function. The function may represent an electrical signal, an optical transmission, or a mechanical structure. In optics, it is primarily used to remove Airy disks caused by diffraction around an intensity peak, improving the focus. The term apodization is used frequently in publications on Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) signal processing.
Exit pupilIn optics, the exit pupil is a virtual aperture in an optical system. Only rays which pass through this virtual aperture can exit the system. The exit pupil is the of the aperture stop in the optics that follow it. In a telescope or compound microscope, this image is the image of the objective element(s) as produced by the eyepiece. The size and shape of this disc is crucial to the instrument's performance, because the observer's eye can see light only if it passes through the aperture.
