Optical diffraction neural networks assisted computational ghost imaging through dynamic scattering media

Ghost imaging leverages a single-pixel detector with no spatial resolution to acquire object echo intensity signals, which are correlated with illumination patterns to reconstruct an image. This architecture inherently mitigates scattering interference between the object and the detector but sensitive to scattering between the light source and the object. To address this challenge, we propose an optical diffraction neural networks (ODNNs) assisted ghost imaging method for imaging through dynamic scattering media. In our scheme, a set of fixed ODNNs, trained on simulated datasets, is incorporated into the experimental optical path to actively correct random distortions induced by dynamic scattering media. Experimental validation using rotating single-layer and double-layer ground glass confirms the feasibility and effectiveness of our approach. Furthermore, our scheme can also be combined with physics-prior-based reconstruction algorithms, enabling high-quality imaging under undersampled conditions. This work demonstrates a novel strategy for imaging through dynamic scattering media, which can be extended to other imaging systems.

Ghost Aperture Synthesis Imaging with Computational Aberration Cancellation

Although optical aperture synthesis has been generally regarded as the only access to very large imager for over a century, the problem of phasing all the giant sub-apertures on the scale of wavelength is still prohibitive. Besides, the accompanied adaptive optics combatting the atmospheric turbulence is also bulky and complicated. We here propose a new paradigm aperture synthesis imager through turbulence, based on computational ghost imaging method. The complex aberrations on the signal path are computationally cancelled by introducing an optimum compensation phase on the reference path. With the advanced aberration cancellation, our imager is free from phasing and aberrations problem. The image degradation due to turbulence is also suppressed and even eliminated without any guide star or wavefront shaping device. Experimentally, diffraction-limited imaging is achieved under turbulence featuring transverse coherence length far less than the optical aperture of the system.
