1 AUTO-FOCUS USING PSD ESTIMATION EFFECTIVE BANDWIDTH By Laurence G. Hassebrook Please follow the tutorial and reproduce the figures with your own code. We demonstrate how to use the effective bandwidth of the PSD estimate to determine the image that is most in focus. The first part of this visualization uses control noise generated from a white Gaussian noise image filtered by a Gaussian function to simulate 2-D blurring. Since the noise is stationary we use the rows of the colored noise to estimate a 1-D PSD of the blurred noise image. From this we estimate an effective bandwidth [1] by first removing dc, then taking the peak value of the PSD and forming a rectangle that is equal in area as the PSD estimate. The rectangle height is equal to the peak PSD value and the width yields the effective bandwidth. The image with the maximum effective bandwidth is considered to be most in focus. The second part of the tutorial uses real data that is blurred by repositioning the target under a microscope. The same algorithm is applied except we use a second type of effective bandwidth definition [2] better suited to signals with a fast frequency drop off. In this second case we find the bandwidth that contains 98% of the total area of the estimated PSD. We chose 98% because that is what is commonly used in Carsons rule to define the bandwidth of wideband systems having a fast drop off. 1. AUTOFOCUS SIMULATION Form an input noise image from White Gaussian Noise. clear all; % dimensions of image Nx=512; My=Nx; % form the control noise image from Gaussian distribution w=randn(my,nx); W=fft2(w); % figure(1) imagesc(w) colormap gray; axis image; axis off; title('input White Noise Pattern') xlabel('spatial X dim (pixels)'); ylabel('spatial Y dim (pixels)'); Color Noise Synthesis Page 1

2 Figure 1: Gaussian white noise input. Estimate the PSD by using each row as a separate run of the data. We can do this because the data is stationary in all directions. % estimate PSD along 1 dimension of the input noise pattern by averaging % the PSD of each row Wy=zeros(1,Nx); wy=zeros(1,nx); for m=1:my wy(1:nx)=w(m,1:nx); Wy=Wy+abs(fft(wy)).^2; Wy=Wy/My; Then estimate an effective bandwith based on the maximum value and total area of the PSD estimate such that: % Determine equivalent ideal lowpass E=sum(Wy); Amax=max(Wy); B2=floor(E./(2*Amax)); B2=2*B2+1; if B2>Nx B2=Nx; Heff=Amax*irect(1,B2,1,Nx); figure(2) k=1:nx; plot(k,wy,k,heff) axis([1,nx,0,1.1*max(wy)]); title('estimated White Noise PSD') xlabel('discrete Frequency'); Color Noise Synthesis Page 2

3 Figure 2: Effective Bandwidth and PSD estimate of Fig. 1. Now loop through a range of blurring by varying sigma of a Gaussian function based filter. Each time, estimate the PSD and effective bandwidth. Keep track of the largest bandwidth which is an indicator of which image is the most in focus. % Simulate blurring process nmax=10; deltadev=60 Nindex=floor(2*nmax+1); EffBW=zeros(1,Nindex); sigmaall=zeros(1,nindex); EffBWindex=0; EffBWmax=0; istore=0; for n=-nmax:nmax % -nmax <n1< n1=floor(abs(nmax-(abs(n)-1))); sigma=n1*deltadev; sigmaall(n+nmax+1)=sigma; Hblurr=igauss(sigma,sigma,My,Nx); wcolor=real(ifft2(hblurr.*w)); % the PSD of each row Wy=zeros(1,Nx); wy=zeros(1,nx); for m=1:my wy(1:nx)=wcolor(m,1:nx); Wy=Wy+abs(fft(wy)).^2; Wy=Wy/My; % Determine equivalent ideal lowpass E=sum(Wy); Amax=max(Wy); B2=E./(2*Amax); B2=floor(B2); B2=2*B2+1; Color Noise Synthesis Page 3

The images were blurred by changing their distance from the camera lens using a Z stage adjustment. This particular type of Z stage also introduced a change in Y position but the technique is relatively invariant to position changes because it uses a PSD estimate. %% REAL DATA Pathname='ee640data' % path or folder name in reference to your default path Filename='autofocusdataB_' % name of files not including the index or suffix Filesuffix='jpg' % suffix or image type % get size of images index=0; Fullname=sprintf('%s%c%s%d%c%s',Pathname,'\',Filename,index,'.',Filesuffix) A_bmp=double(imread(Fullname)); % load pattern#.bmp [My, Nx, Pz] =size(a_bmp); Nindex=20; k=1:nx; EffBW=zeros(1,Nindex); Color Noise Synthesis Page 6

In practice, the PSD of the test data could be used to color the test noise for a closer correspondence of the PSDs. 3. REFERENCES 1. Random Signals Detection, Estimation and Data Analysis by K.
