— In clinical practice, high imaging speed is critical to reduce motion artifacts, cost, and patient discomfort. Researchers at Washington University have developed multi-focal optical-resolution photoacoustic microscopy (MFOR-PAM) capable of high-resolution imaging of hemoglobin concentration and oxy…

— Many problems require the analysis of large, high-dimensional datasets, which make the problem intractable to most optimization algorithms. Gilboa has developed a new parallel distributed algorithm for block optimization problems using adaptive regularizer PDARÂ. PDAR is able to solve both t…

— A novel method for solving the inverse problem of inferring the conductivity tensor field structure (e.g. biological tissue) from a set spatiotemporal measurement. The new method is computationally more efficient than existing methods. We achieved the computational efficiency by using the optimizati…

— The invention is a new process for fabricating nano-structured metal-oxide and other films. The films can harvest solar energy in the form of light and convert it to a more usable form (i.e: electricity or hydrogen gas). The films produced by this process have a unique morphology that grants them a …
