Super-Resolution and Large Depth of Field Model for Optical Microscope Imaging
Due to the limitation of numerical aperture (NA) in a microscope, it is very difficult to obtain a clear image of the specimen with a large depth of field (DOF). We propose a deep learning network model to simultaneously improve the imaging resolution and DOF of optical microscopes. The proposed M-D...

description | Due to the limitation of numerical aperture (NA) in a microscope, it is very difficult to obtain a clear image of the specimen with a large depth of field (DOF). We propose a deep learning network model to simultaneously improve the imaging resolution and DOF of optical microscopes. The proposed M-Deblurgan consists of three parts: (i) a deblurring module equipped with an encoder-decoder network for feature extraction, (ii) an optimal approximation module to reduce the error propagation between the two tasks, and (iii) an SR module to super-resolve the image from the output of the optimal approximation module. The experimental results show that the proposed network model reaches the optimal result. The peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) of the method can reach 37.5326, and the structural similarity (SSIM) can reach 0.9551 in the experimental dataset. The method can also be used in other potential applications, such as microscopes, mobile cameras, and telescopes. |
