This paper is concerned with the construction of optimal filters for smoothing the photon noise that arises under low-light conditions in vision and under low-dose or short-exposure conditions in nuclear medicine. In the case of vision, the paper explores the hypothesis that the retina functions as an optimal filter. The consequences of this hypothesis for light adaptation are studied. In the case of nuclear medicine, a method for constructing optimal filters is introduced, and the method is tested by computer simulation.

The quality of marine magnetic anomaly sources is described with the power-density representation of a stochastic model of random temporal and spatial emplacement of the marine magnetic anomaly source in the oceanic crust. Typical values of sea-floor spreading and emplacement parameters define a high-fidelity process of recording and sea-surface detection of the palaeomagnetic field reversals for spreading rates over 20mmyr-'. An analogous stochastic model is developed for the formation of sea-floor topography by normal faulting. It is shown that the random process of normal faulting observed in the inner walls of the FAMOUS rift valley can account for the quality of the adjacent West Rift Mountains topography.

“…The basic principle in the operation of the spectrally coded (SC) radiometer is similar to the wellknown technique of detecting a periodic waveform in the presence of noise by means of autocorrelation [Lee, 1960]. This detection method relies on the fact that the autocorrelation functions of the signal and noise are different.…”

A radiometer has been developed in which the spectrum of the noise‐like signal is shaped (spectral coding) so that it can be distinguished from the receiver noise by a simple correlation process. This radiometer has a small‐signal sensitivity comparable to that of the Dicke (temporally coded) system and an output insensitive to variations in the system gain or front‐end temperature. An advantage of the system is the simplicity of the required hardware, leading to the possibility of high reliability. A practical radiometer was constructed to demonstrate the technique.
