Abstract
The feasibility of implementing superresolving image restoration for differential-interference-contrast (DIC) microscopy has been studied. This study has involved the computer simulation of DIC optics using the modeling methods of Fourier optics and using random-number-generation software to simulate noise introduced by video instrumentation. The initial results of this modeling and simulation have been reported in earlier papers, with recent extensions of this work and its results presented herein. In particular, images resulting from extensions and improvements to the iterative image-restoration algorithm are presented. Also presented are the tabulations of mean-square error as a function of iteration number which give a quantitative measure of convergence properties and show some of the measurable effects of implementing certain extensions.
