We propose a snapshot spectral imaging method for the visible spectral range using a single monochromatic camera equipped with a two-dimensional (2D) binary-encoded phase diffuser placed at the pupil of the imaging lens and by resorting to deep learning (DL) algorithms for signal reconstruction. While spectral imaging was shown to be feasible using two cameras equipped with a single, one-dimensional (1D) binary diffuser and compressed sensing (CS) algorithms [Appl. Opt.

The suggested designs enable the creation of point-spread functions with defined optical response, having profiles that are dependent on incident wavefront wavelength. This efficient combination of dispersive and diffusive optical responses enables us to perform snapshot spectral imaging using compressed sensing algorithms while keeping a high optical throughput alongside a simple fabrication process.

While spectral imaging was shown to be feasible using a single monochromatic camera with a pupil diffuser [Appl. Opt.

The method exploits a "multiplexed spectrum" intensity pattern, i.e.

In this paper. we design a new family of biorthogonal wavelet transforms and describe their applications to still image compression. The wavelet transforms are constructed from various types of interpolatory and quasiinterpolatory splines.
