Recent Publications
Interferometric focal planes
Journal Article Optics Express · May 19, 2025 We propose arrays of integrated interferometers to characterize the mutual intensity on focal planes. While focal coherence measurement does not increase the aperture-limited spatial bandpass, it can increase Shannon information capacity relative to irradi ... Full text CiteA Decade Review of Video Compressive Sensing: A Roadmap to Practical Applications
Journal Article Engineering · March 1, 2025 It has been over a decade since the first coded aperture video compressive sensing (CS) system was reported. The underlying principle of this technology is to employ a high-frequency modulator in the optical path to modulate a recorded high-speed scene wit ...

Journal Article European Heart Journal Digital Health · January 1, 2025 Aims: Accurate heart function estimation is vital for detecting and monitoring cardiovascular diseases. While two-dimensional echocardiography (2DE) is widely accessible and used, it requires specialized training, is prone to inter-observer variability, an ... Full text CiteRecent Grants
