Automated CT registration, segmentation, and quantification (AutoCT) v1.0

Processing and analyzing brain imaging is crucial in both scientific development and clinical field. In this software package, we build a pipeline that integrates automatic registration, segmentation, and quantitative analysis for subjects' CT scans. Leveraging diffeomorphic transformations, we enable optimized forward and inverse mappings between an image and the reference. Furthermore, we extract localized features from deformation field based on an online template process, which advances statistical learning downstream. The created templates, atlas as well as our methods provide the brain imaging community tools for AI implementations.

Profile Images and Annotations for Vehicle Re-identification Algorithms (PRIMAVERA)

This dataset contains 636,246 profile images of vehicles representing 13,963 unique vehicles. The data was collected by a set of roadside sensors over the course of three years. Each time a vehicle passed by one of the sensors, a series of images was collected. The images were processed to detect and localize each vehicle, and a license plate reader collocated with the sensor was used to provide a unique ID for the vehicle. Actual license plate numbers have been obfuscated by replacing with an arbitrary numerical ID for each vehicle. After localizing the vehicle in each image, the original RGB image was rotated, scaled, and shifted to produce a new RGB image of size 234x234 pixels such that the outermost two wheels are located at predetermined pixel locations in the image. In this way, all vehicle images are aligned to one another. This registration process occasionally results in a portion of certain vehicles being cutoff at the edges of the image. The dataset has been partitioned into two sets called training and validation. The two partitions no common vehicles, i.e., a vehicle present in one partition is guaranteed not to be present in the other. In this way, an algorithm can be validated against a set of new vehicles that were not seen during the training process. The training set contains 543,926 images from 64,440 vehicle passes representing 11,918 unique vehicles, while the validation set contains 92,320 images from 10,991 vehicle passes representing 2,045 unique vehicles. Vehicle images are organized by directories corresponding to unique vehicles. The file naming scheme is as follows: veh_{vehID}_tr_{passID}_{frameID}_{elevation}_{timeofday}.jpg where {vehID} is the vehicle ID (unique across the entire dataset), {passID} is an identifier for each tracked vehicle pass (unique across the entire dataset), {frameID} is the index of the frame within the given vehicle pass starting at 0, {elevation} is a two-letter string indicating whether the sensor was elevated (el) or at ground-level (gl), and {timeofday} is a two-letter string indicating whether the image was captured during daytime (dt) or nighttime (nt).

Multiparametric optical label-free imaging to analyze plant cell wall assembly and metabolism. (Final Report)

Plant tissues are often considered not ideal for fluorescence imaging because of the pervasive intrinsic fluorescence of many plant metabolites and the intricate interactions with light of the many semi-crystalline polymers at the cell wall. Our project aims to take advantage of this observed shortcoming by developing a label-free, optical microscopy platform for characterizing multiple fingerprints of important cell wall components and stress-related, at subcellular scale resolution. The new imaging system can collect fingerprints from both emitted and scattered light that can inform on the chemical nature, subcellular distribution, anisotropy, and molecular environment of multiple cell wall components in intact plant tissues. We are combining these imaging capabilities with computational tools that enable correlated registration, integration, and analysis. This fully integrated, multiparametric optical system will be used to address biological problems connected to cell wall assembly in grasses. This includes a focus on developmental and environmental variation of cell wall impregnation with silica, lignin, suberin, and cutin in different tissues and cell types. Our research plan comprises three main goals: (1) To develop an accessible imaging platform and associated open-source software able to extract and integrate fingerprints from fluorescence-associated (multispectral emission, lifetime, and polarization), wide-field polarimetry, second harmonic generation (SHG), and stimulated Raman scattering signals (SRS); (2) To determine unique combination of fingerprints for various cell wall components and selected metabolites; (3) To analyze the process of cell wall silicification in grasses and determine how silicification affects cell wall properties and lignin, cutin, and suberin deposition in other cell types under differ stress conditions.

Localized keyhole pore prediction during laser powder bed fusion via multimodal process monitoring and X-ray radiography

Systematic fault detection and control during laser powder bed fusion (L-PBF) has been a long-standing objective for system manufacturers and researchers in the additive manufacturing (AM) industry. This manuscript investigates a data fusion approach for detection of keyhole porosity formation during laser irradiation of Ti-6Al-4V substrates by concurrent recording of thermally induced optical emission measured using both off-axis and coaxial photodiode sensors, and acoustic emission. Subsurface defect formation was monitored via high-speed synchrotron X-ray imaging at 20,000 frames per second, enabling temporal registration of keyhole pore formation events to the monitoring signals at a resolution of 50 µs. We developed data fusion machine learning (ML) models for localized prediction of keyhole pore formation at various time scales ranging from 0.5 ms to 2 ms. The signal segments were featurized using two independent approaches: (1) power spectral density (PSD) and (2) highly comparative time series analysis (HCTSA) framework. The extracted features from different sensor modalities were fused together to construct a multimodal feature space and sequential feature selection was used to determine the most informative features for training the ML models. The predictive performance was evaluated for three classifying algorithms: Support Vector Machine (SVM), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Gaussian Naive Bayes (GNB). As a result, pore formation events were predicted with up to 0.95 F1-score, 1.0 recall and 0.94 accuracy. The most heavily weighted features indicate that model performance is chiefly governed by the acoustic monitoring signal, with a secondary contribution from the optical emission sensors.

Experimental Investigation of Nanosecond and Subnanosecond Pulsed DBD in Atmospheric Air: Fast Imaging and Spectroscopy

Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), as an easy and simple way of generation of non-thermal plasma, has found a number of applications in variuos fields. However, development of a homogeneous, or uniform, DBD that would operate at atmospheric pressure conditions in atmospheric air, would open a number of new applications in various fields from thin film coatings to plasma medicine. Unfortunately, at atmospheric pressure, a uniform DBD can be easily transformed into a filamentary dielectric DBD; therefore some serious issues arise, such as gas heating due to strong discharges in the random microdischarge channel and non-uniform energy distribution, which adversely affect applications. These issues traditionally are solved by the use of an appropriate working gas composition, an alternating current driving frequency, lowering of gas pressure, etc. The transitions between discharge modes in the same experimental conditions have been thoroughly investigated in nitrogen, rare gases and their mixtures with air and other gases. In many cases (for example, in plasma medicine), these methods, especially those related to gas composition and pressure, may not be applied in a convenient manner. Recent advances in pulsed power technology permitted application of much faster voltage rise times (including the subnanosecond range) and short (few nanoseconds) pulses, and revealed that uniform DBD can, in fact, be generated in atmospheric air. Such discharges are in the great interest for many applications, however to date there still little understanding of the mechanisms of their operation and characteristics. Currently, there is no adequate model of the uniform dielectric barrier discharge development in atmospheric air. Although extensive studies have been performed on understanding of the nature of the pulsed DBD uniformity, until now there is still little understanding of the mechanism of the DBD transition from the filamentary mode to uniform mode. One of the reasons for this is that development of streamers, and later – filaments, occurs on the sub-nanosecond and nanosecond time scales, and therefore requires imaging and other diagnostic techniques with corresponding speed of registration. Recently developed technologies allow such studies. Here we demonstrate that DBD uniformity strongly depends on applied electric field in the discharge gap. More specifically, the discharge uniformity may be achieved in the case when two conditions are satisfied: (1) stong overvoltage in the discharge gap (provided by fast rise times), when anode-directed streamers are formed, and (2) short pulse duration that prevents discharge overheating due to rising conductivity (current) which leads to formation of filaments. We show that by controlling the applied (global) electric field in ns-pulsed DBD, it is possible to control the uniformity of the discharge. In addition, this offers better control of the discharge chemistry due to local changes of electric fields and therefore electron energy distribution function.

Automated Registration of Vector Data to Overhead Imagery

The availability of open source, remote sensing-derived vector data has increased exponentially in recent years. Unfortunately, these vector data are rarely made available with the corresponding source images from which objects were extracted. As such, these derived datasets are commonly used in combination with target images which differ from the source. Satellite viewing geometry can cause objects, extracted from a source image, to appear shifted when overlaid with a target image. Whether for purely cartographic purposes, reusability of preexisting training labels, or any spatial analysis where spatial correspondence between vector and image are required, the following paragraphs outline a method to address this challenge through the automated registration of vector data to overhead imagery, including existing literature regarding this challenge, followed by a case study of Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

Gantryless Associated-Particle Neutron Radiography

The present work reports on the development of techniques for in-field fast-neutron radiography measurements using the associated-particle imaging (API) method. The API method employs alpha-neutron coincidences from the d+t→α+n reaction to enable fast neutron transmission imaging with excellent contrast using a wide cone beam. However, for field radiography applications, the API method is burdened by the need for the relative positions of the source and detector to be known. Fortunately, these relative positions can be inferred from transmission data. The inferred positions also enable accurate stitching of multiple images into a composite image even when using a low-resolution detector panel and acquiring images having few overlapping pixels. The developed techniques address analysis of measurements where (1) the source and detector panel are separately hand positioned rather than held in registration by a gantry, (2) multiple detector panel positions within the “coincident cone” of tagged neutrons are required to piece together an image of an item of interest, and (3) normalization measurements that have identical source-detector positioning but without the inspected object are not possible. The present work will describe the system calibrations (including timing calibrations and neutron direction calibrations) necessary for subsequent analyses, the method of locating the detector in the coincident cone of neutrons with millimeter precision using the timing and directions of coincident neutrons, the method of calculating a normalization image for a given detector panel position, and the method used to project multiple images into a common image.

Comparison of automated chemical-guided segmentation and human annotation of soil organic matter in X-ray microcomputed tomography imaging in contrasted soil types

Soil organic matter (OM) formation and persistence is strongly influenced by the spatial distribution of organic substrates and microscale soil heterogeneity by dictating OM accessibility to microorganisms. However, traditional size and/or density fractionation techniques disrupt aggregate architecture, eliminating spatial information needed to fully understand intra-aggregate OM distribution. To quantify three-dimensional OM spatial distribution and automate segmentation in X-ray microcomputed tomography (µCT) imaging without human annotation bias, we developed an iodine gas vapor (I2) based staining workflow that eliminates labor-intensive manual annotation while maintaining segmentation accuracy, using aggregates from four taxonomically diverse soils (Xerofluvent, Haploxeroll Sphagnofibrist, Palehumult) with an 8-fold range of soil organic carbon. Human annotation of 10 µCT slices by the experienced and inexperienced annotators resulted in variations up to 3% in the Dice similarity coefficient (DSC), reflecting a degree of inherent subjectivity of manual labeling. Such inconsistencies are expected to compound as the number of manually annotated slices increases. Dual-energy µCT imaging at 33.1 keV (below the iodine (I) K-edge) and 33.2 keV (above the I K-edge) was used to resolve aggregate microstructure following I2 staining. The automated image subtraction pipeline identified OM regions by the I Kedge induced brightness increases, achieving DSC values of 0.58–0.83 relative to an experienced annotator. Sensitivity analyses revealed that the reconstruction alpha value—optimized via the open-source tool TomocuPy—and the 3D registration slice count were the primary determinants of accuracy, providing a novel benchmark for dual-energy soil imaging. The pipeline without GPU acceleration achieved 9.6 to 43.2 times faster than manual annotation. Using GPU-accelerated image post-processing and affine transformation matrices, the pipeline successfully segmented OM elements for large-scale datasets (3232×3232 pixel, 2048 slices) within ~5200 s from raw file acquisition to segmented output. The high-throughput approach enables the quantification of OM spatial distribution across diverse and heterogeneous soil.

I will discuss fast optical cameras based on the back-illuminated silicon sensor and Timepix3 ASIC. The sensor has high quantum efficiency, and the chip provides nanosecond scale time resolution and data-driven readout with 80Mpix/sec bandwidth. The intensified version of the camera is single photon sensitive and since recently has been used for registration of single photons in a variety of quantum information science and quantum imaging experiments as well as for other applications. We briefly review the camera and describe recent experiments with a Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer to characterize its photon counting capabilities.

Atomic Resolution Cryogenic 4D-STEM Imaging via Robust Distortion Correction

Cryogenic four-dimensional scanning transmission electron microscopy (4D-STEM) imaging is a useful technique for studying quantum materials and their interfaces by simultaneously probing charge, lattice, spin, and chemistry on the atomic scale with the sample held at temperatures ranging from room to cryogenic. However, its applications are currently limited by the instabilities of cryo-stages and electronics. To overcome this challenge, we develop an algorithm to effectively correct the complex distortions present in atomic resolution cryogenic 4D-STEM data sets. This method uses nonrigid registration to identify localized distortions in a 4D-STEM and relate them to an undistorted experimental STEM image, followed by a series of affine transformations for distortion corrections. This method allows a minimum loss of information in both reciprocal and real spaces, enabling the reconstruction of sample information from 4D-STEM data sets. This method is computationally cheap, fast, and applicable for on-the-fly data analysis in future in situ cryogenic 4D-STEM experiments.

Digital Miniature Cathode Ray Magnetometer

In this study, we introduce the concept and construction of an innovative Digital Miniature Cathode Ray Magnetometer designed for the precise detection of magnetic fields. This device addresses several limitations inherent to magnetic probes such as D.C. offset, nonlinearity, temperature drift, sensor aging, and the need for frequent recalibration, while capable of operating in a wide range of magnetic fields. The core principle of this device involves the utilization of a charged particle beam as the sensitivity medium. The system leverages the interaction of an electron beam with a scintillator material, which then emits visible light that is captured by an imager. The emitted scintillation light is captured by a CMOS sensor. This sensor not only records the scintillation light but also accurately determines the position of the electron beam, providing invaluable spatial information crucial for magnetic field mapping. The key innovation lies in the combination of electron beam projection, CMOS imager scintillation-based detection, and digital image signal processing. By employing this synergy, the magnetometer achieves remarkable accuracy, sensitivity and dynamic range. The precise position registration enabled by the CMOS sensor further enhances the device’s utility in capturing complex magnetic field patterns, allowing for 2D field mapping. In this work, the optimization of the probe’s performance is tailored for applications related to the characterization of insertion devices in light sources, including undulators.

DSCOVR/EPIC-derived global hourly and daily downward shortwave and photosynthetically active radiation data at 0.1° × 0.1° resolution

Downward shortwave radiation (SW) and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) play crucial roles in Earth system dynamics. Spaceborne remote sensing techniques provide a unique means for mapping accurate spatiotemporally continuous SW–PAR, globally. However, any individual polar-orbiting or geostationary satellite cannot satisfy the desired high temporal resolution (sub-daily) and global coverage simultaneously, while integrating and fusing multisource data from complementary satellites/sensors is challenging because of co-registration, intercalibration, near real-time data delivery and the effects of discrepancies in orbital geometry. The Earth Polychromatic Imaging Camera (EPIC) on board the Deep Space Climate Observatory (DSCOVR), launched in February 2015, offers an unprecedented possibility to bridge the gap between high temporal resolution and global coverage and characterize the diurnal cycles of SW–PAR globally. In this study, we adopted a suite of well-validated data-driven machine-learning models to generate the first global land products of SW–PAR, from June 2015 to June 2019, based on DSCOVR/EPIC data. The derived products have high temporal resolution (hourly) and medium spatial resolution (0.1°×0.1°), and they include estimates of the direct and diffuse components of SW–PAR. We used independently widely distributed ground station data from the Baseline Surface Radiation Network (BSRN), the Surface Radiation Budget Network (SURFRAD), NOAA's Global Monitoring Division and the U.S. Department of Energy's Atmospheric System Research (ASR) program to evaluate the performance of our products, and we further analyzed and compared the spatiotemporal characteristics of the derived products with the benchmarking Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System Synoptic (CERES) data. We found both the hourly and daily products to be consistent with ground-based observations (e.g., hourly and daily total SWs have low biases of -3.96 and -0.71 W m -2 and root-mean-square errors (RMSEs) of 103.50 and 35.40 W m -2 , respectively). The developed products capture the complex spatiotemporal patterns well and accurately track substantial diurnal, monthly, and seasonal variations in SW–PAR when compared to CERES data. They provide a reliable and valuable alternative for solar photovoltaic applications worldwide and can be used to improve our understanding of the diurnal and seasonal variabilities of the terrestrial water, carbon and energy fluxes at various spatial scales.

Cryogenic single-molecule fluorescence annotations for electron tomography reveal in situ organization of key proteins in Caulobacter

Superresolution fluorescence microscopy and cryogenic electron tomography (CET) are powerful imaging methods for exploring the subcellular organization of biomolecules. Superresolution fluorescence microscopy based on covalent labeling highlights specific proteins and has sufficient sensitivity to observe single fluorescent molecules, but the reconstructions lack detailed cellular context. CET has molecular-scale resolution but lacks specific and nonperturbative intracellular labeling techniques. Here, we describe an imaging scheme that correlates cryogenic single-molecule fluorescence localizations with CET reconstructions. Our approach achieves single-molecule localizations with an average lateral precision of 9 nm, and a relative registration error between the set of localizations and CET reconstruction of ∼30 nm. We illustrate the workflow by annotating the positions of three proteins in the bacterium Caulobacter crescentus : McpA, PopZ, and SpmX. McpA, which forms a part of the chemoreceptor array, acts as a validation structure by being visible under both imaging modalities. In contrast, PopZ and SpmX cannot be directly identified in CET. While not directly discernable, PopZ fills a region at the cell poles that is devoid of electron-dense ribosomes. We annotate the position of PopZ with single-molecule localizations and confirm its position within the ribosome excluded region. We further use the locations of PopZ to provide context for localizations of SpmX, a low-copy integral membrane protein sequestered by PopZ as part of a signaling pathway that leads to an asymmetric cell division. Our correlative approach reveals that SpmX localizes along one side of the cell pole and its extent closely matches that of the PopZ region.

Three-dimensional super line-localization in low signal-to-noise microscope images via prior-apprised unsupervised learning (PAUL)

Biological processes such as processive enzyme turnover and intracellular cargo tracking involve the dynamic motion of a small "article" along a curvilinear biopolymer track. To understand these processes that occur across multiple length and time scales, one must acquire both the trajectory of the particle and the position of the track along which it moves, possibly by combining high-resolution single-particle tracking with conventional microscopy. Yet, usually there is a significant resolution mismatch between these modalities: while the tracked particle is localized with a precision of 10 nm, the image of the surroundings is limited by optical difraction, with 200 nm lateral and 500 nm axial resolutions. Compared to the particle's trajectory, the surrounding curvilinear structure appears as a blurred and noisy image. This disparity in the spatial resolutions of the particle trajectory and the surrounding curvilinear structure image makes data reconstruction, as well as interpretation, particularly challenging. Analysis is further complicated when the curvilinear structures are oriented arbitrarily in 3D space. Here, we present a prior-apprised unsupervised learning (PAUL) approach to extract information from 3D images where the underlying features resemble a curved line such as a filament or microtubule. This three-stage framework starts with a Hessian-based feature enhancement, which is followed by feature registration, where local line segments are detected on repetitively sampled subimage tiles. In the final stage, statistical learning, segments are clustered based on their geometric relationships. Principal curves are then approximated from each segment group via statistical tools including principal component analysis, bootstrap and kernel transformation. This procedure is characterized on simulated images, where sub-voxel medium deviations from true curves have been achieved. The 3D PAUL approach has also been implemented for successful line localization in experimental 3D images of gold nanowires obtained using a multifocal microscope. Lastly, this work not only bridges the resolution gap between two microscopy modalities, but also allows us to conduct 3D super line-localization imaging experiments, without using super-resolution techniques.
