  • Publication number: 20230236404
    Abstract: A system for quantitative differential phase contrast microscopy with isotropic transfer function utilizes a modulation mechanism to create a detection light field having a radial or other axial orientation of optical intensity gradient or other distribution. A condenser generates an off-axis light field to project onto an object under examination, thereby generating an object light field, which is then guided to an image capturing device through an objective lens for capturing images. A differential phase contrast algorithm is applied to the images for obtaining a phase, thereby a depth information corresponding to the phase can be obtained to reconstruct the surface profile of the object.

  • Patent number: 11513870
    Abstract: A task in an application node is managed. For instance, based on a type of a predetermined task that is to be executed on a data object in the application node, an address range of a group of objects on which the predetermined task is to be executed is determined in the data object. The predetermined task is executed on the group of objects in an order of addresses of the group of objects. A progress indicator is created for indicating an address of an object that is currently being processed in the group of objects. The predetermined task is managed based on the progress indicator. Thus, an address of an object that is currently being processed may be indicated based on the progress indicator, so that the predetermined task may be managed more easily and effectively based on the progress indicator in subsequent operations.
