In this paper, we present an approach which is applicable to both the stereo and the motion correspondence problems. We take into account different representations of edge primitives and introduce the idea of Hough Transform to develop a matching algorithm which does not require any local constraints during the matching process.

This paper presents a new phase unwrapping algorithm, based on an extended particle filter (EPF) for SAR interferometry. This technique is not limited by the nonlinearity of the model, and is able to accurately unwrap noisy interferograms by applying EPF to simultaneously perform noise suppression and phase unwrapping. Results obtained from synthetic and real data validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The voltage biased SQUID Bootstrap Circuit (SBC) was recently demonstrated for direct readout of SQUID signals. The SBC combines current- and voltage-feedbacks in one circuit to suppress the preamplifier noise. It offers not only a good noise performance, but also wide tolerance of SQUID parameters. Using SBC gradiometer, the bio-magnetic signals were successfully measured. In this paper, we overview the concept of SBC and its applications.
