Image Processing and Analysis for OCT Images

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a high-resolution, high-sensitivity, non-invasive imaging technique, which is very suitable for ophthalmology. However, the original OCT images are usually noisy and require preprocessing to extract useful information for clinical diagnosis.




Using Deep Learning for Automated Detection of Neural Canal Opening in OCT Images

Cup-to-disc ratio is an important indicator for early glaucoma detection. Typically, it starts from extracting the neural canal opening in the OCT image. However, it is hard to be completed only by traditional image processing. So, we proposed an deep learning based method to automatically detect the NCOs on an OCT image.




Display Technology

Pixelwise Illuminance Registration for Displays at Oblique Perspectives

A motorized railing system with camera rotation is proposed for automatic optical inspection for large-sized displays. Our algorithm for pixel registration in this scenario was successfully demonstrated to register pixelwise illuminance of a commercial display at different camera panning angles.




Lensless System

Scattering-type Lensless Encryption System for Face Recognition

A lensless encryption system with diffuser is proposed for face recognition. The facial images were encrypted to be unrecognizable amid the imaging chain of a lensless system. The encrypted intermediate images can be identified by the deep learning method.




Deep neural network for coded mask cryptographical imaging

We proposed a novel cryptographic imaging scheme which is the combination of optical encryption and computational decryption. We applied coded mask to optically encrypt the scene and utilized deep neural network (DNN) for computational decryption. For encryption, the sensor recorded a distinguishable representation of the original signal. For decryption, we reconstructed the image using DNN.




Machine Learning



Automatic Fabric Defect Detection

In this study, we developed a deep learning model based on convolutional neural network (CNN) to inspect the fabric surface anomaly. Proposed compact CNN model can achieve 90% classification accuracy and defect segmentation. With advantage of fast and effective, the model has potential to be applied in real-time surface inspection.



Novel Phase Retrieval Scheme through Deep Neural Network

Reconstructing the phase information of an image from its intensity is a classical problem in most information optical system. This paper made a tempt to solve the phase retrieval problem using deep residual learning framework. The mean absolute error of the recovered phase can be achieved down to 0.08π.
