Abstract:
Digital propagation of an off-axis hologram can provide the quantitative phase-contrast image if the exact distance between the sensor plane (such as CCD) and the reconstruction plane is correctly provided. In this paper, we present a deep-learning convolutional neural network with a regression layer as the top layer to estimate the best reconstruction distance. The experimental results obtained using microsphere beads and red blood cells show that the proposed method can accurately predict the propagation distance from a filtered hologram. The result is compared with the conventional automatic focus-evaluation function. Additionally, our approach can be utilized at the single-cell level, which is useful for cell-to-cell depth measurement and cell adherent studies.

Convolution Properties II
The width property indicates that if the durations of input signals are T1 and T2, then the width of the output response equals the sum of both durations, irrespective of the shapes of the two functions. For instance, convolving two rectangular pulses with durations of 2 seconds and 1 second results in a function with a width of 3 seconds.
The area property asserts that the area under the...
