Improving PSNR and computational efficiency in orthogonal ghost imaging by Kobra Hassanzadeh, Sohrab Ahmadi-Kandjani, Reza Kheradmand, Seyed Amir Mortazavi

“…Abstract In this paper, we present an orthogonal ghost imaging (OGI) method based on two-dimensional discrete cosine transform (2D-DCT) patterns. Unlike traditional methods that are based on random or sinusoidal patterns, our method relies on structured orthogonal patterns to enhance both image quality and reconstruction speed, outperforming random and sinusoidal-based approaches in terms of reconstruction fidelity and computational efficiency. …”
