Abstract

In random phase-shifting interferometry, a novel phase retrieval algorithm is proposed based on the independent component analysis (ICA). By performing the recombination of pixel position, a sequence of phase-shifting interferograms with random phase shifts are decomposed into a group of mutual independent components, and then the background and the measured phase of interferogram can obtained with a simple arctangent operation. Compared with the conventional advanced iterative algorithm (AIA) with high accuracy, both the simulation and the experimental results demonstrate that the proposed ICA algorithm reveals high accuracy, rapid convergence, and good noise-tolerance in random phase-shifting interferometry.
