Method for Assessing the Fidelity of Optical Diffraction Tomography Reconstruction Methods
We use a spatial light modulator in a diffraction tomographic system to
assess the accuracy of different refractive index reconstruction algorithms.
Optical phase conjugation principles through complex media, allows us to
quantify the error for different refractive index reconstruction algorithms
without access to the ground truth. To our knowledge, this is the first
assessment technique that uses structured illumination experimentally to test
the accuracy of different reconstruction schemes.Comment: 11 PAGES, 6 FIGURE
Three-dimensional and tomographic imaging device for X-ray and gamma-ray emitting objects
An instrument for obtaining quantitative, three-dimensional and tomographic information relating to X-ray and gamma-ray emitting objects and for the orthoscopic viewing of such objects includes a multiple-pinhole aperture plate held spaced from an X-ray or gamma-ray to visible-light converter which is coupled to a visible-light image intensifier. The spacing between the aperture plate and the converter is chosen such that the mini-images of an emitting object formed by the pinholes do not substantially overlap as they impinge on the converter. The output of the image intensifier is digitized by a digitizing camera in terms of position and intensity and fed into a digital computer. The computer may output quantitative information relating to the emitting object directly, such as that relating to tomograms, or provide information in analogue form when coupled with a suitable viewing device to give an orthoscopic, three-dimensional image of the object
Deep learning in computational microscopy
We propose to use deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) to perform 2D and 3D computational imaging. Specifically, we investigate three different applications. We first try to solve the 3D inverse scattering problem based on learning a huge number of training target and speckle pairs. We also demonstrate a new DCNN architecture to perform Fourier ptychographic Microscopy (FPM) reconstruction, which achieves high-resolution phase recovery with considerably less data than standard FPM. Finally, we employ DCNN models that can predict focused 2D fluorescent microscopic images from blurred images captured at overfocused or underfocused planes.Published versio
A Learning Approach to Optical Tomography
We describe a method for imaging 3D objects in a tomographic configuration
implemented by training an artificial neural network to reproduce the complex
amplitude of the experimentally measured scattered light. The network is
designed such that the voxel values of the refractive index of the 3D object
are the variables that are adapted during the training process. We demonstrate
the method experimentally by forming images of the 3D refractive index
