Bayesian methods for image super-resolution by Pickup, LC, Capel, DP, Roberts, S, Zisserman, A

“…Related Bayesian super-resolution approaches marginalize over the high-resolution image, necessitating the use of an unfavourable image prior, whereas our method allows for more realistic image prior distributions, and reduces the dimension of the integral considerably, removing the main computational bottleneck of algorithms such as Tipping and Bishop's Bayesian image super-resolution. …”

Pressure Dependence of the Infrared Laser Lines in Barium Vapor by Madigan, M., Hocker, L.O., Flint, J.H., Dewey, C.F. Jr

“…The relative intensities of the four strongest transitions (1.13, 1.50, 2.55, and 2.92 micrometer) vary with buffer gas pressure, suggesting that collisional deexcitation of the 6p 1^P_1 state occurs at higher pressure and is the main mechanism populating the upper states of the 2.55 and 2.33 micrometer lines.…”
