    Abstract: This invention relates generally to the detection of objects, such as stents, within intraluminal images using principal component analysis and/or regional covariance descriptors. In certain aspects, a training set of pre-defined intraluminal images known to contain an object is generated. The principal components of the training set can be calculated in order to form an object space. An unknown input intraluminal image can be obtained and projected onto the object space. From the projection, the object can be detected within the input intraluminal image. In another embodiment, a covariance matrix is formed for each pre-defined intraluminal image known to contain an object. An unknown input intraluminal image is obtained and a covariance matrix is computed for the input intraluminal image. The covariances of the input image and each image of the training set are compared in order to detect the presence of the object within the input intraluminal image.

    Abstract: The invention relates to optical system including light sources that amplify light using a gain medium. Systems and method of the invention are provided for amplifying light while inhibiting reflections at a peak gain of the gain medium, thereby suppressing parasitic lasing. This allows a system to use a broad range of wavelengths without parasitic lasing, thereby increasing the useable range of a tunable optical filter. In this manner, light at wavelengths not at a peak gain can be used effectively, and the gain medium of an optical amplifier does not limit use of a system to a narrow range of wavelengths associated with a peak gain of the gain medium. A single optical system according to the invention can thus be used for applications that require a broad range of wavelengths.
