For 360° video, the existing visual quality assessment (VQA) approaches are designed based on either the whole frames or the cropped patches, ignoring the fact that subjects can only access viewpo…
In this paper, we introduce new relaxations for the hypograph of composite functions assuming that the outer function is supermodular and concave extendable. Relying on a recently introduced relaxa…
How to effectively fuse temporal information from consecutive frames remains to be a non-trivial problem in video super-resolution (SR), since most existing fusion strategies (direct fusion, slow f…
We present a new configuration of narrow linewidth semiconductor lasers (NLSLs) based on a novel narrow-band reflector (NBR) with π phase-shifted anti-symmetric Bragg grating (π-ASBG). Based on t…
Solving a complex optimization task from scratch can be significantly expensive and/or time-consuming. Common knowledge obtained from different (but possibly related) optimization tasks may help en…
In this paper, an all-single-mode fiber strain sensor based on a bent structure Mach-Zehnder interferometer (BS-MZI) is proposed. This sensor consists of two identical bent structures, one of which…
The dark current and the photo response characteristics of extended wavelength In 0.83 Ga 0.17 As/InP photodetectors (PDs) with n-In 0.83 Ga 0.17 As absorber doped to 8×10 15 , 7×10 16 and 1×10 …
Single-walled carbon nanotube encapsulated in boron nitrite nanotube (SWCNT@BNNT) is a novel nanomaterial with a one-dimensional van der Waals (1D-vdW) heterostructure. In this paper, we demonstrat…
We demonstrated a novel long-period fiber grating (LPFG) written in a tri-hole fiber (THF). The LPFG was fabricated by periodically collapsed micro holes utilizing CO 2 laser irradiation integrated…
In-phase and quadrature (IQ) imbalances in optical transceiver, such as amplitude imbalance, phase imbalance, and IQ skew, can cause serious system performance degradation, especially when high ord…
