P‐Hologen: An End‐to‐End Generative Framework for Phase‐Only Holograms

AbstractHolography stands at the forefront of visual technology, offering immersive, three‐dimensional visualizations through the manipulation of light wave amplitude and phase. Although generative models have been extensively explored in the image domain, their application to holograms remains relatively underexplored due to the inherent complexity of phase learning. Exploiting generative models for holograms offers exciting opportunities for advancing innovation and creativity, such as semantic‐aware hologram generation and editing. Currently, the most viable approach for utilizing generative models in the hologram domain involves integrating an image‐based generative model with an image‐to‐hologram conversion model, which comes at the cost of increased computational complexity and inefficiency. To tackle this problem, we introduce P‐Hologen, the first end‐to‐end generative framework designed for phase‐only holograms (POHs). P‐Hologen employs vector quantized variational autoencoders to capture the complex distributions of POHs. It also integrates the angular spectrum method into the training process, constructing latent spaces for complex phase data using strategies from the image processing domain. Extensive experiments demonstrate that P‐Hologen achieves superior quality and computational efficiency compared to the existing methods. Furthermore, our model generates high‐quality unseen, diverse holographic content from its learned latent space without requiring pre‐existing images. Our work paves the way for new applications and methodologies in holographic content creation, opening a new era in the exploration of generative holographic content. The code for our paper is publicly available on https://github.com/james0223/P-Hologen.

A multi-exposure image fusion using adaptive color dissimilarity and dynamic equalization techniques

In the domain of image processing, Multi-Exposure Image Fusion (MEF) emerges as a crucial technique for developing high dynamic range (HDR) representations from fusing sequences of low dynamic range images. Conventional fusion methods often suffer from shortcomings such as detail loss, edge artifacts, and color inconsistencies, thereby compromising the quality of the fused output which is further diminished with extremely exposed and limited inputs. While there have been a few efforts to conduct fusion on limited and impaired static input images, there has been no exploration into the fusion of dynamic image sets. This paper proposes an effective MEF approach that operates on a minimum of two extremely exposed, limited datasets of both static and dynamic scenes. The approach initiates with categorizing input images into under-exposed and over-exposed categories based on lighting levels, subsequently applying tailored exposure correction strategies. Through iterative refinement and selection of optimally exposed variant, we construct an advanced intermediate stack, upon which fusion is performed by a pyramidal fusion technique. The method relies on adaptive well-exposedness and color gradient to develop weight maps for pyramidal fusion. The initial weights are refined using a Gaussian filter and this results in the creation of a seamlessly fused image with expanded dynamic range. Additionally, for dynamic imagery, we propose an adaptive color dissimilarity and dynamic equalization to reduce ghosting artifacts. Comparative assessments against existing methodologies, both visually and empirically confirms the superior performance of the proposed model.

A decision tree operates as a predictive model in machine learning, utilizing a structured hierarchy of rules for the decision-making process. This model is graphically depicted through a tree-like structure, where each node symbolizes a decision point, and the ensuing branches represent the resultant outcomes of these decisions. This method proves particularly efficacious in addressing both classification and regression challenges, offering clear interpretability through its graphical illustration of the connections between input features and predicted outcomes. In the domain of image processing, color image segmentation serves as a crucial preliminary step for various applications. Specifically, the segmentation of skin lesions holds significant importance in image analysis, notably in the classification of lesions within dermoscopy images. Image segmentation involves the categorization of image pixels into uniform regions based on attributes like color, texture, and luminosity. The primary objective here is to delineate the area of interest from the healthy surrounding tissue. In methods reliant on threshold-based segmentation, the effectiveness of the segmentation hinges on the accurate selection of an appropriate threshold.

Application of an ensemble CatBoost model over complex dataset for vehicle classification.

The classification of vehicles presents notable challenges within the domain of image processing. Traditional models suffer from inefficiency, prolonged training times for datasets, intricate feature extraction, and variable assignment complexities for classification. Conventional methods applied to categorize vehicles from extensive datasets often lead to errors, misclassifications, and unproductive outcomes. Consequently, leveraging machine learning techniques emerges as a promising solution to tackle these challenges. This study adopts a machine learning approach to alleviate image misclassifications and manage large quantities of vehicle images effectively. Specifically, a contrast enhancement technique is employed in the pre-processing stage to highlight pixel values in vehicle images. In the feature segmentation stage, Mask-R-CNN is utilized to categorize pixels into predefined classes. VGG16 is then employed to extract features from vehicle images, while an autoencoder aids in selecting features by learning non-linear input features and compressing representation features. Finally, the CatBoost (CB) algorithm is implemented for vehicle classification (VC) in diverse critical environments, such as inclement weather, twilight, and instances of vehicle blockage. Extensive experiments are conducted using different large-scale datasets with various machine learning platforms. The findings indicate that CB (presumably a specific method or algorithm) attains the highest level of performance on the large-scale dataset named UFPR-ALPR, with an accuracy rate of 98.89%.

Spectrum-Dependent Image Convolutional Processing via a Two-Dimensional Polarization-Sensitive Photodetector.

Currently, the improvement in the processing capacity of traditional processors considerably lags behind the demands of real-time image processing caused by the advancement of photodetectors and the widespread deployment of high-definition image sensors. Therefore, achieving real-time image processing at the sensor level has become a prominent research domain in the field of photodetector technology. This goal underscores the need for photodetectors with enhanced multifunctional integration capabilities than can perform real-time computations using optical or electrical signals.

Multi-objective optimization for vector quantization via genetic algorithm

The issue of image compression continues to be a subject of ongoing research within the domain of image processing, particularly in the context of medical applications. The quality of the decompressed image can vary depending on the accuracy of the compression technique, resulting in either fine or distorted details. Therefore, the diagnostic procedure performed by medical professionals is contingent upon the precision of the compression and decompression process. In addition, the compression of medical images serves to decrease the amount of storage required, thereby enabling faster transmission over computer networks through the reduction of their bit size. This paper proposes a hybrid mix of the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) technique and vector quantization (VQ) to improve the compression technique of medical images. The aim of the proposed compression technique is to preserve diagnostic image information while achieving a high compression ratio. First, noise in medical images is caused by salt pepper noise. At the same time, the edges of the images are maintained in sharpness and context. Then, a lossless compression method is applied to the wavelet coefficients of the subband with the lowest frequency, while the thresholding method was used to efficiently construct coefficients for high-frequency sub-bands. This process will produce a traditional VQ, which is estimated via the Genetic Algorithm (GA) with fuzzy clustering. While Arithmetic encoded theory was being utilized to quantize coefficients, the proposed compression technique was evaluated by dividing the image into two levels and three levels of sub-bands, respectively, in two different scenarios. Comparing the decompressed image to the filtered image by means of different evaluation metrics, the proposed method can enhance compression performance and strike a balance between compression ratio and image visual quality.

An efficient lightweight network for image denoising using progressive residual and convolutional attention feature fusion

While deep learning has become the go-to method for image denoising due to its impressive noise removal capabilities, excessive network depth often plagues existing approaches, leading to significant computational burdens. To address this critical bottleneck, we propose a novel lightweight progressive residual and attention mechanism fusion network that effectively alleviates these limitations. This architecture tackles both Gaussian and real-world image noise with exceptional efficacy. Initiated through dense blocks (DB) tasked with discerning the noise distribution, this approach substantially reduces network parameters while comprehensively extracting local image features. The network then adopts a progressive strategy, whereby shallow convolutional features are incrementally integrated with deeper features, establishing a residual fusion framework adept at extracting encompassing global features relevant to noise characteristics. The process concludes by integrating the output feature maps from each DB and the robust edge features from the convolutional attention feature fusion module (CAFFM). These combined elements are then directed to the reconstruction layer, ultimately producing the final denoised image. Empirical analyses conducted in environments characterized by Gaussian white noise and natural noise, spanning noise levels 15–50, indicate a marked enhancement in performance. This assertion is quantitatively corroborated by increased average values in metrics such as Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR), Structural Similarity Index (SSIM), and Feature Similarity Index for Color images (FSIMc), outperforming the outcomes of more than 20 existing methods across six varied datasets. Collectively, the network delineated in this research exhibits exceptional adeptness in image denoising. Simultaneously, it adeptly preserves essential image features such as edges and textures, thereby signifying a notable progression in the domain of image processing. The proposed model finds applicability in a range of image-centric domains, encompassing image processing, computer vision, video analysis, and pattern recognition.
