Computational instrumentation and imaging for industrial and medical applications

Abstract :
Instrumentation and imaging of physical and biological values are fundamental techniques both in scientific and technical fields. Especially in industrial and medical applications, these techniques are so-called ‘requisites’ for characterization of product performance and clinical diagnosis of patients. Most of techniques of such instrumentation and imaging are based on classical theories of physics, electronics, and/or optics. Therefore, their performances (sensitivity, dynamic-range, S/N ratio, etc.) were limited mainly by the quality of real devices. A promising approach to overcome these limitations is to combine computational processes with classic instrumentation techniques.
This talk provides our recent and ongoing studies mainly in industrial visual instrumentation and medical imaging with such approaches. The concepts and experimental achievements are presented to demonstrate their potential future prospects.
