Digital in-line particle holography: twin-image suppression using sparse blind source separation
Résumé
We propose a robust autofocus method for reconstructing digital holograms and twin-image removal based on blind source separation approach. The method is made up of two components: an efficient quincunx lifting scheme based on wavelet packet transform, whose role is to maximize a sharpness metric related to the sparseness of the input holograms, and a geometric unmixing algorithm, which achieves the separation task. Experimental results confirm the ability of sparse blind source separation to discard the unwanted twin-image from in-line digital holograms of particles. © 2014, Springer-Verlag London.
