U.S.-Russia Cooperative Research on the Use of Soviet Light Modulators in Morphological Image Processing

这项关于“在形态图像处理中使用苏联光调制器”的美俄合作研究项目将由卡内基梅隆大学的David P. Casasent博士和俄罗斯科学院列别捷夫物理研究所的Anatoliy Vasiliev博士共同开展。本提案涉及新的图像处理基础研究算法及其在使用俄罗斯空间光调制器（slm）制造的光学相关器架构上的光学实现。俄罗斯长期以来一直是slm的领导者。它们是光学处理器所需的关键器件。该提案涉及俄罗斯提供SLM设备，美国提供使用这些SLM的算法。该形态学图像处理项目实现了推进科学的计划目标，使美国和俄罗斯的领先专家能够在共同感兴趣和能力强的领域结合互补的人才和集中研究资源。

This US-Russia Cooperative Research project on the "Use of Soviet Light Modulators in Morphological Image Processing" will be carried out by Dr. David P. Casasent, Carnegie Mellon University, and Dr. Anatoliy Vasiliev, Lebedev Physical Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences. This proposal concerns new image processing basic research algorithms and their optical implementation on an optical correlator architecture fabricated using Russian Spatial Light Modulators (SLMs). Russia has long been a leader in SLMs. They are the key devices needed in optical processors. The proposal involves the Russians furnishing the SLM devices and the U.S. furnishing the algorithms to use these SLMs. This project in morphological image processing fulfills the program objectives of advancing science by enabling leading experts in the U.S. and Russia to combine complementary talents and pool research resources in areas of strong mutual interest and competence.
