Summary: Ghost imaging based on high-order correlation of optical field has been rapidly developed and extended to the x-ray region. However, limited photon flux results in severe image deterioration. In this study, Fourier-transform ghost imaging with super-Rayleigh speckles is proposed to achieve high-quality ghost imaging at a low photon flux level. The super-Rayleigh speckles were designed using the direct binary search algorithm to optimize binary modulating screens. Experimental results show that speckle contrast can be greatly enhanced and high-visibility Fourier-transform diffraction patterns of the sample can be obtained. This method is of great importance for high-resolution imaging in photon-limited scenarios, especially for laboratory x-ray systems.

Summary: In this study, three-dimensional computational ghost imaging was achieved using multiple photoresistors as single-pixel detectors with the semi-calibrated lighting approach. The depth map and surface normals of the scene were retrieved accurately by performing imaging in the spatial frequency domain and applying semi-calibrated photometric stereo (SCPS) to the obtained spectra.

Summary: The spectral polarization camera based on GISC modulates three-dimensional spatial and spectral information of the target into two-dimensional speckle patterns, which are then acquired through a polarized CCD, verifying the feasibility of the system structure and reconstruction algorithm.

Summary: This study examines the geometry of error amplification in reconstructing signal F from moments m(k)(F), particularly in cases where the nodes are near-collide. The results indicate that error amplification is governed by certain algebraic varieties in the parameter space of signals F, known as Prony varieties, and can be utilized to derive lower and upper bounds on reconstruction error, as well as separate bounds on amplitudes and nodes reconstruction. Furthermore, the geometry of Prony varieties can be used to enhance reconstruction accuracy with additional a priori information.

Summary: The proposed color ghost imaging approach utilizes three-color non-orthogonal random patterns to illuminate the object, with information received by a single-pixel detector and utilizing sparsity constraint and non-local self-similarity in image reconstruction. Numerical simulation results show enhanced imaging quality compared to methods using object sparsity alone, and factors like measurement number and signal-to-noise ratio are studied for their impact on the quality of imaging via sparsity constraint and nonlocal self-similarity (GISCNL).

Summary: The Boolean SATisfiability problem is crucial in computer science, and recent progress in SAT solvers, particularly in Conflict-Driven Clause Learning (CDCL) and Local Search SAT solvers, has been notable. However, there is still a lack of general approach for handling non-CNF constraints. The designed FouriersAT solver utilizes Fourier Analysis to address systems with different types of constraints, leveraging gradient information for local improvements, demonstrating effectiveness on certain benchmarks.

Summary: Panoramic ghost imaging (PGI) is a new method to enlarge the field of view (FOV) of ghost imaging (GI) for practical application. However, the imaging resolution is limited by hardware technology. To achieve high resolution and large FOV of GI, a sub-cell pattern shifting method (SCPS) based on rotation and scaling invariances (RSI) of the log-polar annular pattern structure is proposed for reconstructing higher-resolution PGI from panoramic ghost images with sub-pixel shifting. Results show that SPCS can improve the resolution and reduce noise in PGI, ensuring high-quality images. This method has potential to promote practical application of high-quality and large FOV GI.
