Determining the optical properties of turbid media by using the adding–doubling method

TLDR
A method is described for finding the optical properties of a slab of turbid material by using total reflection, unscattered transmission, and total transmission measurements and the intrinsic error in the method is < 3% when four quadrature points are used.
Abstract
A method is described for finding the optical properties (scattering, absorption, and scattering anisotropy) of a slab of turbid material by using total reflection, unscattered transmission, and total transmission measurements. This method is applicable to homogeneous turbid slabs with any optical thickness, albedo, or phase function. The slab may have a different index of refraction from its surroundings and may or may not be bounded by glass. The optical properties are obtained by iterating an adding–doubling solution of the radiative transport equation until the calculated values of the reflection and transmission match the measured ones. Exhaustive numerical tests show that the intrinsic error in the method is <3% when four quadrature points are used.

Rapid extraction of skin physiological parameters from hyperspectral images using machine learning

TL;DR: In this paper , a stacked dynamic weighting (SDW) model was introduced to combine the predictions of all three individually trained models, and the SDW model was trained by using only a handful of real-world spectra on top of the ANN, CNN and RF models that were trained using simulated data.

New contributions to the optics of intensely light-scattering materials.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Gurevic and Judd formulas were derived from the Kubelka-Munk differential equations, and they are exact under the same conditions as in this paper, that is, when the material is perfectly dull and when the light, is perfectly diffused or if it is parallel and hits the specimen under an angle of 60° from normal.
