Reconstructing Phase Images with Deep Learning

摘要

Aspects relate to reconstructing phase images from brightfield images at multiple focal planes using machine learning techniques. A machine learning model may be trained using a training data set comprised of matched sets of images, each matched set of images comprising a plurality of brightfield images at different focal planes and, optionally, a corresponding ground truth phase image. An initial training data set may include images selected based on image views of a specimen that are substantially free of undesired visual artifacts such as dust. The brightfield images of the training data set can then be modified based on simulating at least one visual artifact, generating an enhanced training data set for use in training the model. Output of the machine learning model may be compared to the ground truth phase images to train the model. The trained model may be used to generate phase images from input data sets.
