Vehicle detection in remote sensing images faces significant challenges due to small object sizes, scale variation, and cluttered backgrounds. To address these issues, we propose RSW-YOLO, an enhanced detection model built upon the YOLOv8n framework, designed to improve feature extraction and robustness against environmental noise. A Restormer module is incorporated into the backbone to model long-range dependencies via self-attention, enabling better handling of multi-scale features and complex scenes. A dedicated detection head is introduced for small objects, focusing on critical channels while suppressing irrelevant information. Additionally, the original CIoU loss is replaced with WIoU, which dynamically reweights predicted boxes based on their quality, enhancing localization accuracy and stability. Experimental results on the DJCAR dataset show mAP@0.5 and mAP@0.5:0.95 improvements of 5.4% and 6.2%, respectively, and corresponding gains of 4.3% and 2.6% on the VisDrone dataset. These results demonstrate that RSW-YOLO offers a robust and accurate solution for UAV-based vehicle detection, particularly in urban scenes with dense or small targets.

This paper proposes an optimized algorithm based on YOLOv11s to address the problem of insufficient detection accuracy of vehicle targets from a drone perspective due to certain scenes involving complex backgrounds, dense vehicle targets, and/or large variations in vehicle target scales due to oblique imaging. The proposed algorithm enhances the model’s local feature extraction capability through a module collaboration optimization strategy, integrates coordinate convolution to strengthen spatial perception, and introduces a small object detection head to address target size variations caused by altitude changes. Additionally, we construct a dedicated dataset for urban vehicle detection that is characterized by high-resolution images, a large sample size, and low training resource requirements. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm achieves gains of 1.9% in precision, 6.0% in recall, 4.2% in mAP@0.5, and 3.3% in mAP@0.5:0.95 compared to the baseline network. The improved model also achieves the highest F1-score, indicating an optimal balance between precision and recall.

Fourier Ptychographic Microscopy (FPM) is a microscopy imaging technique based on optical principles. It employs Fourier optics to separate and combine different optical information from a sample. However, noise introduced during the imaging process often results in poor resolution of the reconstructed image. This article has designed an approach based on a residual local mixture network to improve the quality of Fourier ptychographic reconstruction images. By incorporating channel attention and spatial attention into the FPM reconstruction process, the network enhances the efficiency of the network reconstruction and reduces the reconstruction time. Additionally, the introduction of the Gaussian diffusion model further reduces coherent artifacts and improves image reconstruction quality. Comparative experimental results indicate that this network achieves better reconstruction quality, and outperforming existing methods in both subjective observation and objective quantitative evaluation.

Fourier ptychographic microscopy, as a computational imaging method, can reconstruct high-resolution images but suffers optical aberration, which affects its imaging quality. For this reason, this paper proposes a network model for simulating the forward imaging process in the Tensorflow framework using samples and coherent transfer functions as the input. The proposed model improves the introduced Wirtinger flow algorithm, retains the central idea, simplifies the calculation process, and optimizes the update through back propagation. In addition, Zernike polynomials are used to accurately estimate aberration. The simulation and experimental results show that this method can effectively improve the accuracy of aberration correction, maintain good correction performance under complex scenes, and reduce the influence of optical aberration on imaging quality.

Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is a computational imaging technology that has endless vitality and application potential in digital pathology. Colored pathological image analysis is the foundation of clinical diagnosis, basic research, and most biomedical problems. However, the current colorful FPM reconstruction methods are time-inefficient, resulting in poor image quality due to optical interference and reconstruction errors. This paper combines coloring and FPM to propose a self-supervised generative adversarial network (GAN) for FPM color reconstruction. We design a generator based on the efficient channel residual (ECR) block to adaptively obtain efficient cross-channel interaction information in a lightweight manner, and we introduce content-consistency loss to learn the high-frequency information of the image and improve the image quality of the staining. Furthermore, the effectiveness of our proposed method is demonstrated through objective indicators and visual evaluations.

Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is a novel technique for computing microimaging that allows imaging of samples such as pathology sections. However, due to the influence of systematic errors and noise, the quality of reconstructed images using FPM is often poor, and the reconstruction efficiency is low. In this paper, a hybrid attention network that combines spatial attention mechanisms with channel attention mechanisms into FPM reconstruction is introduced. Spatial attention can extract fine spatial features and reduce redundant features while, combined with residual channel attention, it adaptively readjusts the hierarchical features to achieve the conversion of low-resolution complex amplitude images to high-resolution ones. The high-resolution images generated by this method can be applied to medical cell recognition, segmentation, classification, and other related studies, providing a better foundation for relevant research.
