The image processing handbook

John C. Russ
TLDR
In this paper, the acquisition and use of digital images in a wide variety of scientific fields is discussed. But the focus is on high dynamic range imaging in more than two dimensions.
Abstract
"This guide clearly explains the acquisition and use of digital images in a wide variety of scientific fields. This sixth edition features new sections on selecting a camera with resolution appropriate for use on light microscopes, on the ability of current cameras to capture raw images with high dynamic range, and on imaging in more than two dimensions. It discusses Dmax for X-ray images and combining images with different exposure settings to further extend the dynamic range. This edition also includes a new chapter on shape measurements, a review of new developments in image file searching, and a wide range of new examples and diagrams"

Detrital zircon geochronology and grain-size analysis of a ∼2800 Ma Mesoarchean proto-cratonic cover succession, Slave Province, Canada

TL;DR: In this paper, the ages of five quartzite samples of the ∼2800 Ma Central Slave Cover Group, Slave Province, have been investigated to explore regional lithostratigraphic correlation/diachroneity, maximum depositional ages, ages of underlying basement, and general provenance issues.

Random Field Modeling of Elastic Properties Using Homogenization

TL;DR: In this paper, the random field characterization of elastic properties of a continuum has been studied using a simple stochastic micromechanical model of the continuum and a force-based technique is introduced.
