LIDAR, when used under adverse weather conditions such as fog and dust, suffers from attenuation and backscattering. In particular, backscattering creates spurious echo peaks in the received waveforms at incorrected ranges and leads to false alarms. As a solution, this paper proposes polarised full-waveform warning LIDAR for dust backscattering echo suppression, intended for applications under dusty environments. To this end, first, a theoretical model of the polarised LIDAR is developed based on the LIDAR equation and depolarisation characteristics of dust backscattering and target reflection. Thereafter, the depolarisation characteristics are experimentally evaluated under an artificially generated dusty environment;the results reveal that the target reflection features a strong depolarisation characteristic, whereas dust backscattering has a weak one. When the LIDAR emits linearly polarised light, a significant orthogonal-polarised component exists owing to the target reflection, and dust backscattering induces a mainly parallel-polarised component. On interposing an orthogonal-polarisation analyser in the receiving optical path, the parallel-polarised component from the dust backscattering and target reflection is blocked, whereas the orthogonal-polarised component is allowed to pass;this helps improve the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the target reflection to dust backscattering. Finally, based on the theoretical model of the polarised LIDAR and experimental results, an orthogonal-polarised LIDAR prototype is designed and fabricated. Using this prototype, target detection experiments in a dusty environment are performed;the corresponding experimental results indicate that the orthogonal-polarised LIDAR effectively suppresses dust backscattering echoes and that the SNR of the target reflection to dust backscattering is improved by 4.78–7.12 dB. Utilization of the polarised full-waveform warning LIDAR can significantly reduce the false alarm rate and improves th

Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being viewed as a creative partner rather than as a tool. How to design such collaborations is still a subject of speculation. In this pictorial, we propose a collaborative role for AI to prompt self-reflection. We explore this through a practice-based inquiry of whether and how AI could help a designer reflect on and relate to their own work. Three designers annotate a collection of images representing their fascinations, with subjective labels, indicating different dimensions of their visual concepts. These labels are used to teach an object detection model the designers’ perspectives. Then, they used this trained model on their own design work to evaluate the AI's potential to prompt self-reflection. By describing this process of AI-training we explore how an AI can help us become aware of our own implicit perspectives.

Dual-energy CBCT imaging plays a crucial role in advanced imaging applications due to its ability to quantify material components. Although there are multiple established systems for dual-energy imaging, they often come with high deployment costs. This study investigates the feasibility of dual-energy material decomposition on a less expensive dual-source CBCT system. Due to the specific geometry of dual-source CBCT, cone-beam (CB) artifacts seriously degrade the material decomposition quality when the direct inversion method is adopted. In this paper, a novel dual-source intra-guided material decomposition framework is proposed to suppress CB artifacts in the material maps. Firstly, a dual-source two-pass algorithm is developed for artifact pre-correction during image reconstruction. Then, the structure of small cone-angle regions from one X-ray source is utilized to guide cone beam artifact removal in large cone-angle regions from another source. Finally, direct matrix inverse material decomposition is applied to the filtered image. Extensive experiments have been conducted on the authentic human phantom and demonstrate that the proposed framework achieves excellent performance in cone beam artifact reduction compared to other methods, and significantly enhances the quality of the material maps.
Single-image super-resolution (SISR) typically focuses on restoring various degraded low-resolution (LR) images to a single high-resolution (HR) image. However, during SISR tasks, it is often challenging for models to...
