Image registration is the inference of transformations relating noisy and distorted images. It is fundamental in computer vision, experimental physics, and medical imaging. Many algorithms and analyses exist for inferring shift, rotation, and nonlinear transformations between image coordinates. Even in the simplest case of translation, however, all known algorithms are biased and none have achieved the precision limit of the Cramer Rao bound (CRB). Following Bayesian inference, we prove that the standard method of shifting one image to match another cannot reach the CRB. We show that the bias can be cured and the CRB reached if, instead, we use Super Registration: learning an optimal model for the underlying image and shifting that to match the data. Our theory shows that coarse-graining oversampled images can improve registration precision of the standard method. For oversampled data, our method does not yield striking improvements as measured by eye. In these cases, however, we show our new registration method can lead to dramatic improvements in extractable information, for example, inferring $10times$ more precise particle positions.

Neutron direct-geometry time-of-flight chopper spectroscopy is instrumental in studying fundamental excitations of vibrational and/or magnetic origin. We report here that techniques in super-resolution optical imagery (which is in real-space) can be adapted to enhance resolution and reduce noise for a neutron spectroscopy (an instrument for mapping excitations in reciprocal space). The procedure to reconstruct super-resolution energy spectra of phonon density of states relies on a realization of multi-frame registration, accurate determination of the energy-dependent point spread function, asymmetric nature of instrument resolution broadening, and iterative reconstructions. Applying these methods to phonon density of states data for a graphite sample demonstrates contrast enhancement, noise reduction, and ~5-fold improvement over nominal energy resolution. The data were collected at three different incident energies measured at the Wide Angular-Range Chopper Spectrometer at the Spallation Neutron Source.
Signal processing techniques have been developed that use different strategies to bypass the Nyquist sampling theorem in order to recover more information than a traditional discrete Fourier transform. Here we examine three such methods: filter diago nalization, compressed sensing, and super-resolution. We apply them to a broad range of signal forms commonly found in science and engineering in order to discover when and how each method can be used most profitably. We find that filter diagonalization provides the best results for Lorentzian signals, while compressed sensing and super-resolution perform better for arbitrary signals.

Two dimensional (2D) peak finding is a common practice in data analysis for physics experiments, which is typically achieved by computing the local derivatives. However, this method is inherently unstable when the local landscape is complicated, or t he signal-to-noise ratio of the data is low. In this work, we propose a new method in which the peak tracking task is formalized as an inverse problem, thus can be solved with a convolutional neural network (CNN). In addition, we show that the underlying physics principle of the experiments can be used to generate the training data. By generalizing the trained neural network on real experimental data, we show that the CNN method can achieve comparable or better results than traditional derivative based methods. This approach can be further generalized in different physics experiments when the physical process is known.
Despite of their success, the results of first-principles quantum mechanical calculations contain inherent numerical errors caused by various approximations. We propose here a neural-network algorithm to greatly reduce these inherent errors. As a dem onstration, this combined quantum mechanical calculation and neural-network correction approach is applied to the evaluation of standard heat of formation $DelH$ and standard Gibbs energy of formation $DelG$ for 180 organic molecules at 298 K. A dramatic reduction of numerical errors is clearly shown with systematic deviations being eliminated. For examples, the root--mean--square deviation of the calculated $DelH$ ($DelG$) for the 180 molecules is reduced from 21.4 (22.3) kcal$cdotp$mol$^{-1}$ to 3.1 (3.3) kcal$cdotp$mol$^{-1}$ for B3LYP/6-311+G({it d,p}) and from 12.0 (12.9) kcal$cdotp$mol$^{-1}$ to 3.3 (3.4) kcal$cdotp$mol$^{-1}$ for B3LYP/6-311+G(3{it df},2{it p}) before and after the neural-network correction.

Deformable image registration (DIR) is essential for many image-guided therapies. Recently, deep learning approaches have gained substantial popularity and success in DIR. Most deep learning approaches use the so-called mono-stream high-to-low, low-t o-high network structure, and can achieve satisfactory overall registration results. However, accurate alignments for some severely deformed local regions, which are crucial for pinpointing surgical targets, are often overlooked. Consequently, these approaches are not sensitive to some hard-to-align regions, e.g., intra-patient registration of deformed liver lobes. In this paper, we propose a novel unsupervised registration network, namely the Full-Resolution Residual Registration Network (F3RNet), for deformable registration of severely deformed organs. The proposed method combines two parallel processing streams in a residual learning fashion. One stream takes advantage of the full-resolution information that facilitates accurate voxel-level registration. The other stream learns the deep multi-scale residual representations to obtain robust recognition. We also factorize the 3D convolution to reduce the training parameters and enhance network efficiency. We validate the proposed method on a clinically acquired intra-patient abdominal CT-MRI dataset and a public inspiratory and expiratory thorax CT dataset. Experiments on both multimodal and unimodal registration demonstrate promising results compared to state-of-the-art approaches.
