Abstract
We demonstrate that noise is an important factor contributing to the decline of sensitivity and linear response range of velocity measurements for laser speckle contrast imaging. We propose to use a noise correction method to improve the sensitivity of velocity measurements. For a kind of camera in which the mean values of the dark noise have been subtracted and negative counts have been set to zero, we propose a method to estimate the true dark noise based on the maximum likelihood estimation, which expands the application scope of the noise correction method.
