In this work we show how a specific set of three depolarizing observables, the Indices of
Polarimetric Purity (IPP), P 1, P 2 and P 3, are ideal metrics to study the depolarization …

Complete characterization of biological samples is of potential interest in different industrial
and research areas, as for instance, in biomedical applications, for the recognition of organic …

In this work, we discuss the interest of using the indices of polarimetric purity (IPPs) as a
criterion for the characterization and classification of depolarizing samples. We prove how …

Polarimetry encompasses a collection of optical techniques broadly used in a variety of
fields. Nowadays, such techniques have provided their suitability in the biomedical field …

We highlight the interest of using the indices of polarimetric purity (IPPs) to the inspection of
biological tissues. The IPPs were recently proposed in the literature and they result in a …

Searching for independent polarization parameters and understanding their physical
meanings are important for quantifying anisotropic structures of biological tissues. In this …

We propose a physically realizable space for the polarized light scattering measurement
using the Stokes-Mueller formalism by a purity-index–depolarization-index (PI− P Δ) plane …

A comprehensive physically realizable space, namely, the overall purity index-components
of purity (PI_4D− CP) space is proposed for the characterization of the depolarization …

Polarimetrical imaging is a noninvasive optical technique of great interest in biophotonics
since it has the capability of obtaining relevant information of biological samples, being …

An objective analysis is carried out of the matricial models representing the polarimetric
properties of light and material media leading to the identification and definition of their …
