"Suppressing the Zero-Frequency Components in Single Quantitative Phase" by Jiale Long, Chuisong Meng et al.
In off-axis quantitative phase imaging, existing methods of suppressing the zero-frequency component (ZFC) always cause the loss of high-frequency phase information, thus degrading the accuracy of phase reconstruction. To overcome these problems, this paper proposes to preserve the high-frequency information by filtering the intrinsic mode function. In this method, empirical mode decomposition is employed to decompose the interferometric image into a series of intrinsic mode function (IMF) components from high to low frequencies. The decomposed low-frequency IMF components are processed by Gau...
