We present a new polarimetric imaging system based on liquid-crystal modulators, a
spectrally filtered white-light source, and a CCD camera. The whole Mueller matrix image of …

Polar decomposition consists of representing an arbitrary Mueller matrix with a product of
three simpler matrices, but, since these matrices do not commute, the result depends on the …

The concept of degree of polarization surfaces is introduced as an aid to classifying the
depolarization properties of Mueller matrices. Degree of polarization surfaces provide a …

Combining active multispectral and polarimetric imaging significantly enhances detection
capability of very low contrast targets through the control of both the polarization state and …

This paper extends and refines previous work on clustering of polarization-encoded images.
The polarization-encoded images used in this work are considered as multidimensional …

Polarization-encoded imaging consists of the distributed measurements of polarization
parameters for each pixel of an image. We address clustering of multidimensional …

The polarization state of light double passing through the eye is mainly modified by the
birefringent structures of the cornea and the retina. The effects of depolarization are often …

Imaging laser radar (ladar) systems have been developed for automatic target identification
in surveillance systems. A processor in the ladar uses the range value at the target pixels to …

Nous présentons d'abord un système de tomographie optique fonctionnant en lumière
blanche, avec un interféromètre de Linnik. La résolution tomographique obtenue est de …

We propose to review two concepts that can be used for target detection and identification in
optronic systems: lidar-radar and multipectral polarimetric active imaging. The lidar-radar …
