研究目的
To investigate terahertz imaging of multi-layer non-overlapping contents and utilize the shadow effect to improve recovery performance and reduce the number of measurements.
研究成果
The proposed hierarchical group total variation minimization approach effectively utilizes the shadow effect in multi-layer THz imaging, achieving improved recovery performance across layers with reduced measurements. It outperforms individual-layer and group TV methods, particularly in deeper layers, by enforcing nested sparsity constraints in the TV domain.
研究不足
The study relies on numerical simulations with synthetic data, which may not fully capture real-world complexities such as noise variations, material properties, or practical hardware constraints. The approaches assume non-overlapping contents and specific sparsity patterns, which might limit applicability to overlapping or more complex scenarios. Optimization of regularization parameters is required for best performance.
1：Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses compressed scanning mode for THz imaging, employing total variation (TV) minimization methods including individual-layer TV minimization (I-TVM), group TV minimization (G-TVM), and hierarchical group TV minimization (HG-TVM) to handle sparsity and shadow effects in multi-layer structures.
2：Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Numerical simulations are conducted with synthetic data representing layered samples containing non-overlapping letters (e.g., 'M', 'E', 'A', 'L') in multiple layers.
3：List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
Not explicitly detailed in the paper; based on typical setups, it involves a THz transmitter, collimating lens, spatial light modulator (SLM), focusing lens, and single-pixel photoconductive detector, but specific models or brands are not provided.
4：Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Measurements are collected using random mask patterns in compressed scanning mode; algorithms (e.g., ISTA, FISTA) are applied for image recovery, with Monte-Carlo simulations to evaluate performance metrics like success rate and normalized mean squared error (NMSE).
5：Data Analysis Methods:
Performance is quantified using NMSE and success rate from Monte-Carlo simulations, with regularization parameters optimized for minimal error.
