A high-order polynomial fitting method is proposed to accelerate the computation of double-Gaussian fitting in the retrieval of the Brillouin frequency shifts (BFS) in optical fibers showing two local Brillouin peaks. The method is experimentally validated in a distributed Brillouin sensor under different signal-to noise ratios and realistic spectral scenarios. Results verify that a sixth-order polynomial fitting can provide a reliable initial estimation of the dual local BFS values, which can be subsequently used as initial parameters of a nonlinear double-Gaussian fitting. The method demonstrates a 4.9-fold reduction in the number of iterations required by double-Gaussian fitting and a 3.4-fold improvement in processing time.

In spectroscopy, matching a measured spectrum to a reference spectrum in a large database is often computationally intensive. To solve this problem, we propose a novel fast search algorithm that finds the most similar spectrum in the database. The proposed method is based on principal component transformation and provides results equivalent to the traditional full search method. To reduce the search range, hierarchical clustering is employed, which divides the spectral data into multiple clusters according to the similarity of the spectrum, allowing the search to start at the cluster closest to the input spectrum. Furthermore, a pilot search was applied in advance to further accelerate the search. Experimental results show that the proposed method requires only a small fraction of the computational complexity required by the full search, and it outperforms the previous methods.

A coarse and fine combined fast search and auto-focusing algorithm was suggested in this paper. This method can automatically search and find the focal plane by evaluating the image definition. The Krisch operator based edge energy function was used as the big-step coarse focusing, and then the wavelet transform based image definition evaluation function, which is sensitivity to the variation in image definition, was used to realize the small-step fine focusing in a narrow range. The un-uniform sampling function of the focusing area selection used in this method greatly reduces the workload and the required time for the data processing. The experimental results indicate that this algorithm can satisfy the requirement of the optical measure equipment for the image focusing.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have become vital targets in civilian and military fields. However, the polarization characteristics are rarely studied. This paper studies the polarization property of UAVs via the fusion of three polarimetric decomposition methods. A novel algorithm is presented to classify and recognize UAVs automatically which includes a clustering method proposed in “Science”, one of the top journals in academia. Firstly, the selection of the imaging algorithm ensures the quality of the radar images. Secondly, local geometrical structures of UAVs can be extracted based on Pauli, Krogager, and Cameron polarimetric decomposition. Finally, the proposed algorithm with clustering by fast search and find of density peaks (CFSFDP) has been demonstrated to be better than the original methods under the various noise conditions with the fusion of three polarimetric decomposition methods.
