Abstract
In this paper, we investigate a learning-based complex field recovery technique of an object from its digital hologram. Most of the previous learning-based approaches first propagate the captured hologram to the object plane and then suppress the DC and conjugate noise in the reconstruction. To the contrary, the proposed technique utilizes a deep learning network to extract the object complex field in the hologram plane directly, making it robust to the object depth variations and well suited for three-dimensional objects. Unlike the previous approaches which concentrate on transparent biological samples having near-uniform amplitude, the proposed technique is applied to more general objects which have large amplitude variations. The proposed technique is verified by numerical simulations and optical experiments, demonstrating its feasibility.
