Artificial Intelligence in Digital Holographic Imaging: Technical Basis and Biomedical Applications

An eye-opening discussion of 3D optical sensing, imaging, analysis, and pattern recognition

Artificial intelligence (AI) has made great progress in recent years. Digital holographic imaging has recently emerged as a powerful new technique well suited to explore cell structure and dynamics with a nanometric axial sensitivity and the ability to identify new cellular biomarkers. By combining digital holography with AI technology, including recent deep learning approaches, this system can achieve a record-high accuracy in non-invasive, label-free cellular phenotypic screening. It opens up a new path to data-driven diagnosis.

Artificial Intelligence in Digital Holographic Imaging introduces key concepts and algorithms of AI to show how to build intelligent holographic imaging systems drawing on techniques from artificial neural networks, convolutional neural networks, and generative adversarial network. Readers will be able to gain an understanding of the basics for implementing AI in holographic imaging system designs and connecting practical biomedical questions that arise from the use of digital holography with various AI algorithms in intelligence models.
