project description:
The project aims to push the boundaries of quantitative phase imaging (QPI) by developing single-shot phase retrieval algorithms for in-line interferometric microscopy. By shifting the complexity from optical hardware to software, the project introduces deep learning (CNN) and Bayesian inference methods for accurate and robust phase estimation from intensity-only data. The outcomes will enable compact, cost-efficient, and stable optical setups capable of real-time imaging of dynamic biological processes. DeepSee pioneers a universal AI-based approach to single-shot in-line QPI, independent of specific experimental systems or sample types.
