However, information retrieval methods are important because acquisition speed, scanning mode, image quality, and radiation dose depend on them. Phase-stepping （PS） is a widely used method to retrieve information, while angular signal radiography （ASR） is a newly established method. In this manuscript, signal-to-noise ratios （SNRs） of ASR are compared with that of PS. Numerical experiments are performed to validate theoretical results. SNRs comparison shows that for refraction and scattering images ASR has higher SNR than PS method, while for absorption image both methods have same SNR. Therefore, our conclusions would have guideline in future preclinical and clinical applications.展开更多

Firstly,the Gabor transformation is used as TF transformation in the system and a sorting model is established under undetermined condition; then the SNR adaptive pivot threshold setting method is used to find the TF single source. The mixed matrix is estimated according to the TF matrix of single source. Lastly,signal sorting is realized through improved subspace projection combined with relative power deviation of source. Theoretical analysis and simulation results showthat this algorithm has good effectiveness and performance.展开更多

However, the detection effect of current SR models is still unsatisfactory. Here, a coupled tri-stable stochastic resonance （CTSSR） model is proposed to further increase the output signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） and improve the detection effect of SR. The effects of parameters a, b, c, and r in the proposed resonance system on the SNR are studied, by which we determine a set of parameters that is relatively optimal to implement a comparison with other classical SR models. Numerical experiment results indicate that this proposed model performs better in weak signal detection applications than the classical ones with merits of higher output SNR and better anti-noise capability.展开更多

It was found that there was great potential to improve the signal quality and repeatability by reducing the laser beam divergence angle using a suitable beam expander （BE）. In the present work, the influences of several experimental parameters for the case with BE are studied in order to optimize the analytical performances： the signal to noise ratio （SNR） and the relative standard deviation （RSD）. We demonstrate that by selecting the optimal experimental parameters, the BE-included LIBS setup can give higher SNR and lower RSD values of the line intensity normalized by the whole spectrum area. For validation purposes, support vector machine （SVM） regression combined with principal component analysis （PCA） was used to establish a calibration model to realize the quantitative analysis of the ash content. Good agreement has been found between the laboratory measurement results from the LIBS method and those from the traditional method. The measurement accuracy presented here for ash content analysis is estimated to be 0.31%, while the average relative error is 2.36%.展开更多
