Speckle Noise Reduction in Sonar Image Based on Adaptive Redundant Dictionary

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
As acoustic waves are affected by the channel characteristics, such as scattering and reverberation when propagating in water, sonar images often exhibit speckle noise which will cause visual quality of the image to decrease.

Scene-Driven Semantic Alignment for Generative Communication in Underwater Images

IET Signal Processing
Underwater images serve as one of the most intuitive media for human perception of underwater environments. However, the limited bandwidth and susceptibility to noise in underwater acoustic (UWA) channels pose significant challenges for traditional image

Underwater TDOA Acoustical Location Based on Majorization-Minimization Optimization

Sensors, 2020
Underwater acoustic localization is a useful technique applied to any military and civilian applications. Among the range-based underwater acoustic localization methods, the time difference of arrival (TDOA) has received much attention because it is easy

Bio‐Inspired Molecular Events in Poly(Ionic Liquids)

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Originating from dipolar and polar inter‐ and intra‐chain interactions of the building blocks, the topologies and morphologies of poly(ionic liquids) (PIL) govern their nano‐ and micro‐processibility. Modulating the interactions of cation‐anion pairs with aliphatic dipolar components enables the tunability of properties, facilitated by “bottom‐up ...

STLFM Signal Based Adaptive Synchronization for Underwater Acoustic Communications

IEEE Access, 2019
In underwater acoustic communications (UAC), signal synchronization plays a key role in the performance. It is usually performed using a known preamble transmitted prior to the data. However, the underwater acoustic (UWA) channel is characterized as time-

Shaping of Biohybrid Functional Living Materials

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates a strategy for shaping living mycelium into functional materials by directing its natural growth. Nanoparticles armor hyphae, micron‐scale particles entangle within the network, and printed hydrogel architectures steer expansion, creating defined geometries.

Uncovering the Origin of Efficiency Roll‐Off in TADF OLEDs

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
OLEDs based on thermally activated delayed fluorescent (TADF) materials often suffer from a severe drop in efficiency at high brightness levels. This work presents a technique to uncover the source of this efficiency drop, and quantifies the exciton‐exciton and exciton‐polaron annihilation processes responsible for efficiency losses in our TADF OLEDs ...
