Opt Express. 2020 Dec 7;28(25):37686-37699. doi: 10.1364/OE.405798.

Abstract

To develop an intelligent imaging detector array, a diffractive neural network with strong robustness based on the Weight-Noise-Injection training is proposed. According to layered diffractive transformation under existing several errors, an accurate and fast object classification can be achieved. The fact that the mapping between the input image and the label in Weight-Noise-Injection training mode can be learned, means that the prediction of the optical network being insensitive to disturbances so as to improve its noise resistance remarkably. By comparing the accuracy under different noise conditions, it is verified that the proposed model can exhibit a higher accuracy.
