Imaging through a scattering medium via model-driven deep learning

Imaging through a scattering medium is of great significance in many areas. Especially, speckle correlation imaging has been valued for its noninvasiveness. In this work, we report a deep learning solution that incorporates the physical model and an additional regularization for high-fidelity speckle correlation imaging. Without large-scale data to train, the physical model and regularization prior provide a correct direction for neural network to precisely reconstruct hidden objects from speckle under different scattering scenarios and noise levels. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method presents a significant advance in improving generalization and combating the invasion of noise. (c) 2023 Optica Publishing Group
