Phase Contrast Microscopy — Public Tier

(5 scenes)

Full-access development tier with all data visible.

What you get

Measurements (y), ideal forward operator (H), spec ranges, ground truth (x_true), and true mismatch spec.

How to use

Load HDF5 → compare reconstruction vs x_true → check consistency → iterate.

What to submit

Reconstructed signals (x_hat) and corrected spec as HDF5.

Parameter Specifications

True spec visible — use these exact values for Scenario III oracle reconstruction.

Parameter Spec Range True Value Unit
phase_ring_alignment -1.0 – 2.0 0.5 umoffset
halo_artifact_strength -0.06 – 0.12 0.03 relative
phase_ring_absorption 0.66 – 0.78 0.72 -
