For high-precision situation that the impact of angle error on precision is comparable with the impact of position error, a camera pose estimation algorithm that can fuse the angle and position errors is proposed. The covariance of position error is projected onto a unit sphere and fused with the covariance of angle error in the iterative process of position estimation algorithm of traditional least squares adjustment camera. The problem that the projection progress depends on the parameters to be estimated is solved with block relaxation iteration method. The weighted least squares adjustment equation is constructed using the covariance. From the adjustment equation, the estimated values of camera pose in the current iteration are obtained, which combine the position and angle errors. The proposed algorithm unifies the measurement models of the position error and angle error. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm applied in orientation system for missile vehicle.

    Terahertz wave at frequency range from 0.1 THz to 10 THz has advantages such as large transmission capacity, good direction, high transmission efficiency and so on. Studying the application to the communication field plays a very important role in satisfying the demand of higher transmission rate for users. The terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) system is used to measure the terahertz wave transmission data from 0.1 THz to 2.4 THz in atmosphere with different humidities for a 0.6 meters transmission distance. And based on the classical model of extracting optical constants proposed by Dorney et. al., the data such as delay time, power spectrum, amplitude spectrum and absorption coefficient are obtained. The results show that the water vapor in the atmosphere has obvious absorption and attenuation effects on terahertz, and the attenuation rises with the increase of humidity, especially in absorption peak. At the same time, there is transparent window of weak attenuation which can be applied to terahertz communication.

    Using the improved strong field approximation method, the effects of long-range potential and short-range potential in above-threshold ionization energy spectra are investigated and the origin of the low-energy structure is also found. Meanwhile, in order to prove whether it is reasonable to use pure molecules instead of molecular ions in calculating the differential cross sections (DCS) of electrons and molecular ions, the DCS of electrons and atomic ions are calculated in some different incident electron energies conditions. The results of theoretical calculation and experiments show that the effect of long-range potential can be neglected and using pure molecules instead of molecular ions is reasonable with large-angle scattering in the large incident electron energies condition.

    A kind of novel sampled fiber Bragg grating (SFBG) sensor for temperature and axial strain sensing is proposed and demonstrated. In order to fabricate the SFBG, we make a single helical twist structure on a standard single-mode fiber by a special fiber fusion splicer, and then inscribe a fiber Bragg grating on the twist structure based on the UV-side illumination and the phase mask technique. The reflective spectrum of the SFBG has the characteristics of equal spacing and narrow bandwidth, and can be freely modified by adjustment of the twist rate of the fiber. We experimentally investigate the temperature and axial strain responses of the SFBG, and the results show that when helical twist period is P=504.0 μm (torsional rate is α=12.47 rad/mm), the period of FBG is Λ=544.6 nm, and the device length is L=5.0 mm, the measured sensitivities for temperature and axial strain are 10.12 pm/℃ and 1.12 pm/με, respectively. Compared with the counterparts, the SFBG has the advantages of simple fabrication, high flexibility, high stability and low cost. It has potential applications in multi wavelength fiber lasers and multi-channel spectral filters.

    We analyze the differences of static and dynamic power transfer functions (PTFs) and Q-factor transfer function (QTF) for clock-pumped four-wave mixing (FWM) fiber regenerators with the optical signal degraded by spontaneous emission noise. The influence of extinction ratio on the dynamic PTF curve is revealed. The dynamic PTF and QTF characteristics of all-optical regenerator are studied emphatically and the simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental data. It is shown that the input optical power corresponding to the PTF′s output saturation point is larger than that to the QTF′s optimal operating point by 1 dB for the given wavelength configuration and optical fiber parameters. Besides, the point is basically independent of the pump optical power. This conclusion means that the optimal operating point can be derived by measurement of the corresponding dynamic PTF curves.

    Image segmentation is usually needed to extract the features in order to recognize images of terahertz inline digital holography reconstruction. The images of terahertz inline digital holography reconstruction contain various degree of noise, which affects the quality of segmentation. In this paper, the composite segmentation method based on the clipping, mirror expansion, filtering and histogram polynomial fitting is adopted for the characteristics of terahertz holographic reconstructed image. By using this method, the 2.52 THz images of terahertz inline digital holography reconstruction of gasket and gear are processed and compared step by step with the basic global threshold method and the Otsu method, and objectively evaluated with Mathews correlation coefficient. Experimental results show that the composite method can get better segmentation results.

    Digital image correlation method is widely studied and applied due to its advantages, such as non-contact, whole measurement, and simple structure. The traditional calculation method of strain fields takes the local least squares fitting process of the displacement field as the core, and uses the unified subset size of the whole field to be calculated. However, there is a biggish algorithm error in the process of heterogeneous deformation measurement. Larger strain subset size will smooth local deformation gradient, while smaller strain subset size cannot effectively reduce the displacement field error. Therefore, according to the local gradient intensity of the displacement field, a novel algorithm is proposed to correct displacement fields and dynamic select the strain for calculating the subset size, and simulate the results of the speckle images. The results show that the proposed method effectively reduces the calculation error of the digital image correlation method in heterogeneous deformation, and while the system precision is improved. The dynamic subset selection algorithm based on the local gradient intensity of the displacement fields has a simple principle and high calculation accuracy.

    A novel method of opening-hole virtual repairing in point cloud is proposed based on modified curve contraction flow, which aims to improve the effect of existing means. Firstly, on the basis of calculating the surface normal vector and tangent vector of the hole boundary point, the whole boundary is formed according to the feature line. Secondly, the cross-point of each boundary point is obtained by the intersection of the vertical plane of the tangent vector and the boundary, and a cross-vector is formed with the corresponding boundary point. The growth direction of the boundary point is calculated by using the weighted sum of the inward vector and the cross-vector, and the growth step is determined according to the density of the original point cloud so as to be repaired. Finally, the Laplace smoothing algorithm is utilized to smooth and uniform mesh for obtaining final repairing result. The experimental results show that the similarity of Gaussian curvature distribution of our approach improves by 26.8%, compared with the base surface mesh addition method,wave front method and geometric feature repaired method.

    At present, the super-resolution reconstruction methods based on convolutional neural network have the defects of large amount of parameters, low timeliness and loss of edge detail information. In order to solve these problems, we propose a super-resolution reconstruction algorithm of multiscale convolution neural network based on edge correction. Firstly, in the training phase, we set the parameter sharing layer by using the redundancy of low frequency information, In other words, the same set of filters applied to different magnification training networks to build the multi-task learning framework. In the reconstruction phase, the edge correction coefficient of high-resolution image is learned from the sample training library. The neighborhood pixel difference is used to fuse the edge coefficient and the reconstructed high resolution image, and to correct the deviation of the edge information and make up for the missing details. Finally, according to the stochastic gradient descent and back-propagation, we use the gradient to continuously update the weight parameters to make the network reach the maximum optimization. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm has the significant reconstruction effect, high edge sharpness, elimination of blurring and aliasing, and greatly reduces the amount of parameters through parameter sharing to meet real-time requirements.

    To overcome the shortcoming of bright speck phenomenon in four order totally variational model and the non-unique optimal solution in sparse regularization model of regularization image super-resolution reconstruction, an infrared remote sensing image super-resolution reconstruction model based on total generalized variation regularization is proposed in combination with the actual demand of infrared remote sensing image super-resolution reconstruction. The advantages and feasibility are analyzed with the concept of zero-order tensor space and the relaxation solution. Combined with the self-fissility of this model, the reconstruction model is split into two sub-problems by alternating direction multiplier method. The conjugate gradient method and the fast Fourier transform method are used to solve the sub-problem in numerical solution process, respectively. From the analysis of the testing results, the proposed model has a significant improvement in the resolution of the reconstructed image for both the simulated image and the real image. The objective evaluation is better than the method used in the literature, in which the peak signal to noise ratio can are increased by 1, 0.02 and 0.1 unit, respectively.

    An algorithm combining principal component analysis (PCA)-linear discriminant analysis (LDA) with support vector machine (SVM) is proposed for the real-time and robustness requirements of multi-branch path identification and tracking in the process of automated guided vehicle(AGV) visual guidance. Firstly, the image features are obtained by image preprocessing algorithm and PCA-LDA algorithm. Next, the image is identified by SVM classifier, which is optimized by gray wolf optimization algorithm. In the aspect of path tracking, the lateral deviation and course deviation are calculated by using the least square fitting method. The experimental results show that the rate of path recognition is 99.3% and real-time requirements are achieved by using the algorithm combining PCA-LDA with SVM, and the path tracking error is within 20 mm to meet the general industrial environmental needs.

    The existing methods of traffic sign detection and recognition based on low dynamic range (LDR) images can achieve ideal results in good exposure environment. But they are vulnerable to the limitation of lighting and weather conditions, leading to weak robustness. For this reason, we propose a recognition method based on the high dynamic range (HDR) technology. The captured LDR images under different exposure conditions are adaptively stretched in the luminance range by the improved inverse tone mapping algorithm, generating two sub-images separately. Then an HDR image produced by the multi-exposure fusion algorithm is used instead of the original LDR images for recognition. The experimental results show that the proposed method can greatly improve the accuracy of traffic sign detection and recognition.

    For image matching, the KAZE feature detection and description algorithm has demonstrated a number of advantages. However, the solution of Perona-Malik (P-M) model adopted by KAZE is not unique, and the weak edges of image are prone to be smoothed in scale spaces by nonlinear diffusion filter function when the feature points are detected. To overcome these problems, an improved KAZE feature detection and description algorithm for image matching (CKAZE) is proposed. Firstly, an adaptive diffusion filter is built based on the principle of KAZE and energy functional. Then, the solution uniqueness and the edge preserving capacity of the proposed adaptive diffusion filter function are studied during filtering process. Finally, the CKAZE is constructed and its performance is validated through image matching experiments on Mikolajczyk benchmark image dataset. The results demonstrate that the correct rates of feature matching through CKAZE is 4.555%, 2.138%, 0.656% and 1.981% higher, respectively, than those by KAZE for Gauss blurring, illumination, rotation zoom and visual transformation, which indicate that the accuracy of feature detection and description is improved by CKAZE.

    Aiming at the problems in content-based image retrieval, such as inconsistence between low-level visual features and the user′s high-level semantics for image understanding, low image retrieval accuracy, and the inability of a single distance measurement method for complete reflection of the similarity degree between images, we propose a remote sensing image retrieval method based on improved fuzzy C-means clustering and convolutional neural network (CNN). This method makes full use of the characteristics of remote sensing images. It adaptively processes the noise of remote sensing images by using Retinex algorithm, and uses CNN to supervise the remote sensing images by multi-layer neural network to extract remote sensing image features. Besides, the modified fuzzy C-means clustering is adopted for feature clustering analysis. Meanwhile, the top-k sorting algorithm which combines the quick sorting algorithm with the distance position weights is applied to improve the retrieval accuracy of the remote sensing images. Experimental results show that this method can significantly improve the performance of remote sensing image retrieval.

    In video quality assessment, most researchers manually extract the features first, and then use machine learning to predict video quality score, which leads to unideal result. Since the VGG-16 net has excellent robustness in feature extraction, we use the network model and migrate parameters to construct the end-to-end video quality assessment network. The experimental results on LIVE video database show that the assessment score of this method is consistent with the subjective assessment score, and its assessment indexes of Spearman rank correlation coefficient and Pearson correlation coefficient reached 0.867 and 0.843, respectively, which indicated that the performance of the proposed method is better than most of the current video quality assessment algorithms based on manual feature extraction.

    The problem of image reconstruction in the sparse system of radio frequency tomography with multiple scattering path is presented, and a self-adaptive sparse reconstruction method based on subspace tracking is proposed. The initial value and step length of the sparse degree are dynamically adjusted according to the characteristics of the target signal. And the attenuation coefficient of multipath linear model is sparse by using the subspace tracking algorithm. In the process of reconstruction, the supporting set is updated by the sparse estimation to reconstruct the target image. Compared with the other reconstruction algorithms, this method can effectively reduce the influence of the ghost on image definition and realize the clear reconstruction of tomography with unknown sparse. The reconstruction of the system and the probability of the ghost are presented. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can accurately estimate sparsity and the high precision image with low calculation amount, which can be used in other fields of radio frequency imaging.

    The numerical simulation shows that the signal of field change detection is sensitive to the optical thickness and effective scale of the cloud in the range of 5° of the forward scattering angle of the sun. We develop a solar photometer (VFOVSP) based on image tracking and automatic fast changing field of view. It can quickly measure the direct radiation of different fields of view and provide a new technical mean for ground measurement of cirrus. The instrument makes use of image tracking technology to solve the problem of four quadrant tracking failure under the condition of thin cloud. A programmable variable field aperture is used to measure the different fields of view in a short time. The aerosol optical thickness (AOT) measured by VFOVSP is compared with that by a solar photometer (POMO2). The root mean square error of the AOT measured by VFOVSP is less than 0.5%, which indicates that the instrument has a high accuracy in the aerosol measurement. The change of the field ratio is analyzed under the different weather conditions. The change of the ratio is related to the particle size and the optical thickness, which provides possibility for retrieving optical properties of cirrus clouds.

    The factors causing the positioning error of mobile instrument of vision measurement machine are analyzed. The positioning accuracy results are compared under the conditions of line ruler compensating the positioning error and without error compensation. In order to overcome the aiming error and alignment error caused by manual sampling when using line ruler compensation, we propose a method of using a template with array solid circles as the compensation standard precision parts to compensate for planar comprehensive positioning error. The method firstly carries out a template alignment. The solid circle image is obtained by image acquisition. And the circle center coordinate is calculated and drawn in the collected image in real time by image processing method. The circle center is marked, which is used as alignment reference to adjust the standard template position on the stage in order to make the motion coordinate system and the template coordinate system parallel. After alignment, the machine is move to the position where the circle center of each array is coincident with the center of the image. The corresponding coordinate point pair is recorded. And the fitting coefficient is obtained through the polynomial fitting method and used for machine positioning error compensation. The method is tested on the VMS300 vision measuring machine. After the compensation, the positioning accuracy of the instrument reaches 2 μm, and the accuracy is effectively improved.

    The non-contact measurement of space surface profile based on line laser is an effective method for the accurate on-line dimension detection of present industrial parts. In order to improve the non-contact triangulation accuracy, we need extract the section characteristic line of measured contour accurately. However, for the surface of industrial parts with irregular surface, it is difficult to express the contour feature accurately with a simple smoothing processing method. Therefore, a polynomial curve fitting method is proposed, which takes the contour feature points as the boundary points and then puts all the points together to produce a continuous contour curve. By comparing the collected data set of tested objects and corresponding fitted curves, we find that the proposed method can not only solve the jagged problem generated in the laser line extraction process, but also can improve the measurement accuracy. The fitted curve can truly express contour features of tested surface, which has important practical value.

The 3D profile data of joint surface are accurately reconstructed. The results show that the detection system possesses the advantages such as non-contact and high precision, which can be used to solve the detection problem of prosthetic joint surface profile.

    The S136 mold steel samples with different Cr contents are fabricated by the selective laser melting (SLM) technique and the effect of Cr content on microstructures and performances of mold steels is investigated. The results show that the addition of Cr makes the numbers of voids, cracks and other defects in samples increase, which results in the reduction of relative density. With the increase of Cr content, the martensite content in the samples decreases first and then increases. Benefitting from the refinement of Cr, the higher the Cr content, the finer the microstructures of the samples, but the smaller the microhardnesses. The addition of Cr can generate a dense passivation film on the surface of samples to improve their anti-corrosion resistance. However, when the Cr content is too high, the corrosion resistance is reduced due to the increasing number of cracks.

    The titanium alloy samples are formed by selective laser melting (SLM) based on different scanning strategies, and the effect of scanning strategy on forming precision is analyzed. The results show that the roughness on lateral surface of forming part is strongly affected by the scanning strategy. The roughness on lateral surface of forming part by one-way scanning or Z-scanning strategies parallel to the scanning direction is better than that on the lateral surface perpendicular to the scanning direction. The degree of bending curvature of forming part by the spiral scanning strategy is relatively small and its shape structure is relatively accurate. Compared with the design model, the length and width of forming part by these three scanning strategies are reduced by 1-2 mm, while the other sizes are close. The whole forming precision of forming part by spiral scanning strategy is better than those by one-way scanning and Z-scanning strategies.

    A femtosecond pulsed laser with wavelength of 800 nm is used to process micro-pits on the surface of cemented carbide YG6. The morphology parameters and surface contact angles of these micro-pits are measured to obtain the optimal processing parameters. The effects of micro-pit shape, distribution density and single micro-pit area on the surface contact angle are analyzed. Based on the middle state theory of Wenzel and Cassie models, the influence mechanism of micro-pit shape on surface contact angle is analyzed. The results show that the micro-pit surface morphology is relatively good and there exists a linear relationship between the micro-pit depth and number of scanning when the average power is lower than 200 mW. The micro-pit surface contact angle decreases with the increase of micro-pit density and increases with the increase of single micro-pit area. The shapes of micro-pits in the order of excellence of surface wettability are as follows: regular triangle, regular square, regular hexagon and circle.

Based on the advantages of orthogonal iteration and Softassign algorithm, the collinear error of the object space in three-dimensional (3D) feature points and two-dimensional (2D) feature points is used as the basis for determining the matching relationship between feature points and the objective function value for calculating the camera pose. A iteratively way determines the matching relationship of feature points and the pose of the camera. It can handle the case where the 3D/2D feature points are in one-to-one correspondence, and the case which occlude 3D feature points and erroneous 2D features. The results of the synthetic image experiments show that the success rate of this algorithm is over 82% in one case with image noise, occlusion and clutter. The experiment of real image can verify the property of algorithm.

    A kernel correlation filter (KCF) with step-by-step association framework is proposed to aim at the various challenges, such as camera sudden movement, occlusion, false detection and appearance similarity in multi-target tracking algorithms. Firstly, the accurate detection results are obtained by utilizing a target detector based on the convolutional neural network. Then, a fast tracker based on the KCF algorithm is established for each target by weighted fusion of the tracking results of the three features to predict the motion state of the target. In addition, in order to effectively reduce the number of fragmented trajectories, this algorithm associates the trajectories step by step through the confidence of tracklets, and uses the online random fern to re-detect the target in the case of occlusion. Finally, the scale in the KCF algorithm is adaptively updated by using the associated successful detection information. Experimental results illustrate that the proposed algorithm displays powerful and efficient tracking performance under various complicated conditions compared with the existing excellent algorithms.

    Currently, the commonly used multi-angle fusion three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction algorithm mainly includes the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm and the structure from motion (SFM) algorithm. Aiming at the shortcomings of the above algorithms, we propose a multi-angle fusion 3D reconstruction algorithm with binocular stereo based on ICP and SFM. Firstly, the n groups of photos are taken around the target with binocular cameras by using the SFM algorithm. Then, we manually select the matching feature points of target in each group of binocular images, and calculate the 3D coordinate of matching feature points to generate the n groups of 3D point cloud. Subsequently, the rotation matrix and translation vector within the n groups of 3D point cloud are calculated and optimized by ICP algorithm. Finally, the n groups of 3D point are fused, and the 3D geometry of target is recovered by Delaunay triangle. The experimental results show that, the proposed algorithm takes advantages of the binocular cameras, overcomes the disadvantages of ICP and SFM algorithm, and has good vision effect for 3D reconstruction of target.

    A major challenge of pedestrian detection is to detect different-scale pedestrians in complicated scenarios, especially for far-scale pedestrians. Motivated by the experiment that pedestrians with different scales exhibit dramatically different visual features, we propose in this paper a multi-scale aware pedestrian detection algorithm. Firstly, we introduce deformable convolutional layers in full convolutional network structure to expand the receptive field of feature maps. Secondly, we use cascade-region proposal network to extract multi-scale pedestrian proposals and introduce discriminant strategy, and define a multi-scale discriminant layer to distinguish pedestrian proposals category. Finally, we construct a multi-scale aware network, use the soft non-maximum suppression algorithm to fuse the output of classification score and regression offsets by each sensing network to generate final pedestrian detection regions. The experiments show that there is low detection error on the datasets Caltech and ETH, and the proposed algorithm is better than the current detection algorithms in terms of detection accuracy and works particularly well with far-scale pedestrians.

    In the task of unmanned vehicle infrared video colorization, considering the uniqueness of a single frame and the continuity of the entire infrared video, a dual-channel cycle-consistent adversarial network (DcCCAN) based colorization method is proposed. The dual-channel generation network we proposed is on the basis of cycle-consistent adversarial network (CCAN) and has good image feature extraction ability, which can automatically extract the features of the frame in the video, and at the same time can extract the features of the previous frame generated. By joint training of adversarial loss and cycle-consistent loss, the function from infrared domain image to color domain image can be learned by unsupervised learning methods and the colorization of the infrared video can be realized. The experimental results show that the proposed method can provide natural color information and texture information for the infrared images in the video, and meet the real-time requirements.

    To solve the problem that jitter video moving object detection is not accurate, we propose a moving object detection method based on block gray projection, background difference and continuous inter-frame difference. By dividing the image frames into block processing, the algorithm combines the discrete decision mechanism to remove the target regions with low gray gradient and the local motion, so as to improve the accuracy of global motion vector estimation. A cross correlation calculation is done for the gray projection of the block area and the image correction is completed. For the corrected sequence frames, we propose a fusion strategy based on background difference and continuous three frame difference method, which can deal with and enhance the moving target area. The selfadaptive thresholding segmentation for the differential image smoothing fusion processing and Otsu method is used to detect foreground moving targets. In jitter video sequence experiment, compared with different algorithms, the proposed algorithm can effectively detect moving targets in the jitter scene, and ensure better detection results and faster detecting speed.

The calculation results show that, the La single doping and La/Y codoping make the cell volume of Ca2Si increase and the bandgap become narrow, while the Y doping does make the cell volume decrease and the bandgap become wide. After the La, Y single doping and codoping, the Fermi level enters the conduction band, and Ca2Si becomes an n-type semiconductor, and the dielectric function, extinction coefficient, and absorption edge of Ca2Si all move towards the low energy direction, and both the refractivity and reflectivity increase.

    In order to obtain a tunable ultra-broadband absorption spectrum under transverse electric (TE) waves and a high reflectivity under transverse magnetic (TM) waves, an electromagnetic absorber is designed based on the plasma metamaterials and the lumped resistors. Its absorptivity, reflectivity, surface electric field diagram, surface current diagram and energy loss diagram are calculated by the full wave simulation method. The influences of its structural parameters and resistance on the absorptivity and reflectivity are investigated. The research results show that, by means of the excitation for different plasma resonance ranges, not only the absorption property is improved, but also the tunable absorption spectrum can be obtained. As for the designed electromagnetic absorber, not only the ultra-broadband absorption of TE waves can be realized, but also the polarization splitting of TE and TM waves can be achieved.

    The geometrical structures, electronic structures and optical properties of the two-dimensional (2D) SiC doped with P with different concentrations are investigated by the first principle method. The results show that, the lattice constant and the bandgap of 2D SiC doped with P gradually decrease with the increase of P doping concentration. The valence band is mainly composed of the hybridization of the electrons of C-2p, Si-3p and P-3p states, while the conduction band is mainly composed of the electrons of Si-3p state. The P doping weakens the covalency and increases the ionic property for the C—Si bond. The P doping expands the optical absorption range of 2D SiC, and makes the absorption coefficient and the refractive index increase with the increase of doping concentration, which indicates that P doping can effectively improve the absorption for both the visible and infrared light.

    At present, two theoretical analysis methods, nonlinear coupled-mode theory and nonlinear Lugiato-Lefever equation (LLE) model, are used to investigate the generation of Kerr optical frequency comb in micro-ring resonators. In previous theoretical studies, only dispersion and optical nonlinear effects were generally considered, and the thermal effects in micro-ring resonators under strong pumping were ignored. In this paper, in view of the thermal effect in the micro-ring resonator induced by the traveling light beam, the nonlinear LLE is modified, and based on the modified equation, the generation of Kerr optical frequency comb is investigated for the two cases of fixing and adjusting the initial detuning. Generation mechanisms of the Kerr optical frequency comb based on these two different ways are analyzed. The characteristics of the Kerr optical frequency comb generated by the two ways are compared, and the reason that causes their difference is investigated.

The results show that, under the driving of the bending vibration of the thin films, the pressure in this proposed lens is large in its center and small in its edge, which indicates that this lens is a convex lens. Meanwhile, its focal length decreases with the increase of input voltage, and the focal length range is 10-60 mm. This proposed lens has a simple and thin structure, and a larger zoom range than that of other liquid zoom lenses, and thus has the strong practical application value.

According to the design requirement of cell phone lens, we study the relationship between the design parameters and constrain conditions and objective function in Delano diagram. With the Mente Carlo-particle swarm optimization (PSO) hybrid optimization algorithm, the automatic generation of the cell phone lens initial configuration is realized. Taking the proposed method, we design a 5 pieces-twenty million pixels and ultra-thin tele-lens of cell phone. The design results show that the modulation transfer function (MTF) is greater than 60% within 0.8 field of view at the 1/4 Nyquist frequency 125 lp/mm. Compared with the 6 pieces lens with the same design requirement parameters, which is based on PWC method, the yield rate is increased by 10% at the edge of view by the tolerance simulation. By the TV line test of the 5 pieces-twenty million pixels lens after the fabrication, the resolving power of 2300 LW/PH and 1700 LW/PH at the centre and the 0.8 field of view are obtained. The outcome of design, manufacturing and TV line test show that, the solving method of initial configuration for cell phone lens based on Delano diagram can help to improve the design efficiency and get higher yield.

The surface grating flip-chip LED model is established by the CAD module of RSOFT software. Then, the LED module of RSOFT software is used to simulate and optimize the surface grating flip-chip LED.

    We design an electronic control device based on graphene metamaterial with grating structure and study its polarization modulation properties in the terahertz region by finite element analysis method. The results show that in a wide band range of 0.1-2.0 THz, a broadband modulation occurs in the transmission of polarized terahertz wave parallel to the band (TE). It can be attributed to the intraband determined Drude conductivity of graphene. However, because of the plasma effect of graphene metamaterial, the transmission of polarized terahertz wave perpendicular to the band (TM) is almost transparent in the same terahertz region. More calculations also prove that with the increase of Fermi level of graphene, the modulation of TE will be enhanced largely while the plasma peak of TM will be blue shift. Meanwhile, the modulation can be further enhanced by the increase of the area ratio of graphene and the number of graphene layers in the device. In addition, the increase of the band width can cause a red shift of the plasma peak. With 2 μm period and 1.5 μm band width, a tunable maximum polarization degree of 0.89 can be achieved with 6 layer graphene device at Fermi level of 0.8 eV. This work paves a way for new graphene based terahertz polarization modulator.

    Conventional fixed imaging sensors are mostly used to analyze the changes of spectrum resulting from changes in the biochemical parameters of the ground objects. However, the computer simulation model used to study the bidirectional reflectance characteristics can not complete the simulation of multiple types of ground objects because of the large amount of view factors that need to be calculated when constructing a scene. Therefore, there is less connection between them. To deal with these problems, based on the Radiosity Applicable to Porous Individual objects (RAPID), we simulate the reflectance of the Yuhuayuan area in Changchun City and analyze the sensitivity of the reflectance to the environment factors. The results show that the field of view of the sensor has a strong influence on hot spot. The solar zenith angle and sky light ratio have a strong influence on all directions of the visible and near-infrared bands. Simulating the influence of environmental factors on the imaging spectrum is a good way to provide the basis for inversion of the ground objects of the biochemical parameters of fixed imaging sensor.

    Aiming at the effect of surface scattering on the imaging performance for astronomical telescope optical system, we propose a method of calculating the encircled energy in image plane based on the power spectrum density (PSD) of the mirror surface. The relationship between the intensity distribution of the image surface and the power spectral density of the mirror surface is proposed based on Harvey-Shack scattering model. The propagation of the scattering in the off-axis three mirror optical system on each reflecting surface is described. The relationship between irradiance distribution and the ratio of the effective root-mean-square (RMS) to wavelength is discussed. The surface power spectral density in different spatial frequency bands of 1.5 m-diameter optical surface is obtained by different measurements, and the full-band one-dimensional and two-dimensional power spectral density are fitted by k-correlation model. It shows that the effective RMS of surface shape on the processed sample is 13.7 nm. Then the encircled energy distribution of the image plane at different wavelengths is compared. The processing requirements of a large space astronomical telescope in our country including scattering conditions are given: the effective RMS of mirror surface must be less than 10.3 nm, and the RMS of low frequency error needs to be less than 8 nm.

    Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is proposed to discriminate origins of navel oranges. A series of 10 origins of navel oranges which from four counties of Ganzhou in Jiangxi and other six provinces are selected. After cleaning the skin of navel oranges, the images of plasma are collected by ICCD camera and LIBS spectra are obtained by spectrometers to qualitatively analyze the feasibility of origin identification of navel oranges. Furthermore, fifteen points smoothing and multiple scattering correction (15SM+MSC) are utilized to preprocess the LIBS data. And principal component analysis (PCA) and PCA-MLP(multi-layer perceptron) are used to discriminate the origins of navel oranges. The investigation shows that the PCA-MLP model coupled with suitable data processing methods can not only identify origins of navel oranges which from seven provinces in a large area, but also identify origins of navel oranges which from four counties within a small area. The accuracy is 97.8% for origins of navel oranges which from seven provinces by evaluating LIBS spectra in training set, and 95.3% in test set.

Firstly, the number of endmembers is determined by the virtual dimension. And the thought of hyperspectral unsupervised classification is performed by K-means clustering algorithm which classifies each pixel into classifications. Then the pixel with the largest spectral value is extracted from each kind of class. According to the theory of simplex, the pixels of hyperspectral image are used to form a simplex in the high-dimensional space, and the vertexes of the largest simplex are the endmembers which are extracted. The simulation and real data have shown that this method of endmember extraction has the advantages of high efficiency and accuracy compared with the traditional method.

    Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) technology is an element analysis technology based on atomic emission spectroscopy and plasma emission spectroscopy. In this study, LIBS is used to detect the lead (Pb) concentrations in water. The strongest spectral line of Pb 405.8 nm is selected as the analytical line and Si 390.6 nm is used as internal standard element. The detection limit of Pb obtained by linear fitting is determined to be 7.40×10-6 . A quantitative analysis model based on biogeography-based optimization (BBO) algorithm is established. Using this model, we establish the LIBS spectra of 35 samples with different Pb concentrations. Among them, 30 sets of data are used to train the BBO quantitative analysis model, and the remaining 5 sets of data are used as test sets to evaluate the analytical ability of the model. The results show that the relative standard deviation (RSD) and the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of the model are quite good when using the BBO algorithm model to predict the Pb concentration in water.

    The surface condition and spectral absorption characteristics of objects can be accurately reflected by their spectral reflectance data. The information of spectral distribution distinguishes the camouflaged objects which are difficult to be found and identified by human eyes, and measures the difference between a target and the background quantitatively. According to colorimetry, there are two characteristic parameters, color difference and spectral matching coefficient. Using these two evaluation parameters as reference indices, we extracted color characteristics of the target ship and the south of the East China Sea, analyzed their spectral reflectance distribution, and evaluated the effectiveness of the camouflage system. Meanwhile, we proposed the probability formula of target recognition for more effective evaluation of ship camouflage effect and obtained corresponding experiment results. The results show that the color difference and spectral matching coefficient can be used as evaluation parameters for evaluating the camouflage effect of target ships effectively.
