Such set up is considered to serve a wide area of applications related with three-dimensional display and beam shaping, where physically inconsistent input data is commonly available. Finite-dimensional models of scalar light fields are used to state the reconstruction problem as matrix inversion. Regularized inversion is done by the Tikhonov method, implemented by the iterative algorithm of conjugate gradients. The problem proves to be ill-posed, where the data points inconsistency is fully compensated by the regularized inversion, showing to be attractive for any application.","PeriodicalId":201478,"journal":{"name":"2010 9th Euro-American Workshop on Information Optics","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115084087","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective functional consists of a data fidelity term and a regularizer. The fidelity term corresponds to the likelihood function derived for the Gaussian noisy observations of the wave field intensities (powers). The wave field reconstruction is framed as a constrained nonlinear optimization with respect to a 2D object wave field and is based on the augmented Lagrangian technique. The main goal is to design an algorithm which is more efficient and accurate than the conventional ones such as the well-known Gerchberg-Saxton algorithms and their multiple modifications. As a further development we discuss a variational approach using a transform domain prior on phase and module of the 2D object wave field.","PeriodicalId":201478,"journal":{"name":"2010 9th Euro-American Workshop on Information Optics","volume":" 93","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113948558","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A temporal object to be imaged is located in the test arm while the reference arm consists of some simple temporal optical elements. The incident light is assumed to be temporally incoherent, classical pulsed light. We first show that the correlation between intensity fluctuations in these two arms is given by a fractional Fourier transform of the temporal object. In special cases, the fractional Fourier transform reduces to the ordinary Fourier transform and the image of the object. We then derive explicit expressions for the resultant ghost image under two different conditions, with a view to examining the effect of the incident pulse. As a result, it is found that the resultant temporal ghost image depends only on the single temporal variable in the reference arm though the light in this arm never interacts with the object, and that it is generally distorted by the effect of the incident pulse.","PeriodicalId":201478,"journal":{"name":"2010 9th Euro-American Workshop on Information Optics","volume":"70 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126808428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
