Iterative least square phase-measuring techniques address the phase-shifting interferometry issue of sensitivity to vibrations and scanner nonlinearity. In these techniques the wavefront phase and phase steps are determined simultaneously from a single set of phase-shifted fringe frames where the phase shift does not need to have a nominal value or be a priori precisely known. This method is commonly used in laser interferometers in which the contrast of fringes is constant between frames and across the field. We present step-by-step modifications to the basic iterative least square method. These modifications allow for vibration insensitive measurements in an interferometric system in which fringe contrast varies across a single frame, as well as from frame to frame, due to the limited bandwidth light source and the nonzero numerical aperture of the objective. We demonstrate the efficiency of the new algorithm with experimental data, and we analyze theoretically the degree of contrast variation that this new algorithm can tolerate.

Background: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance and evolution of Chat Generative Pre-Trained Transformer (ChatGPT; OpenAI) as a resource for shoulder and elbow surgery information by assessing its accuracy on the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons shoulder-elbow self-assessment questions. We hypothesized that both ChatGPT models would demonstrate proficiency and that there would be significant improvement with progressive iterations.

Materials And Methods: A total of 200 questions were selected from the 2019 and 2021 American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons shoulder-elbow self-assessment questions.

Due to their advantages of compact geometries and lightweight, diffractive optical elements (DOEs) are attractive in various applications such as sensing, imaging and holographic display. When designing DOEs based on algorithms, a diffraction model is required to trace the diffracted light propagation and to predict the performance. To have more precise diffraction field tracing and optical performance simulation, different diffraction models have been proposed and developed.

Deep learning has been widely used in phase unwrapping. However, owing to the noise of the wrapped phase, errors in wrap count prediction and phase calculation can occur, making it challenging to achieve high measurement accuracy under high-noise conditions. To address this issue, a three-stage multi-task phase unwrapping method was proposed.

Orbital angular momentum (OAM) multiplexing is emerging as a critical technique for achieving high data capacity in underwater wireless optical communications (UWOC). Nonetheless, wavefront distortions induced by underwater turbulence compromise the orthogonality of OAM modes. In this paper, we introduce a physics-driven untrained learning approach for adaptive optics that operates independently of extensive amplitude datasets.

Recursive hierarchical parametric identification of Wiener-Hammerstein systems based on initial value optimization.

Institute of Artificial Intelligence and Future Networks, Beijing Normal University at Zhuhai, Zhuhai, China; BNU-HKBU United International College Tangjiawan, Rd. JinTong 2000#, Zhuhai, China. Electronic address:

In this paper, a novel recursive hierarchical parametric identification method based on initial value optimization is proposed for Wiener-Hammerstein systems subject to stochastic measurement noise. By transforming the traditional Wiener-Hammerstein system model into a generalized form, the system model parameters are uniquely expressed for estimation. To avoid cross-coupling between estimating block-oriented model parameters, a hierarchical identification algorithm is presented by dividing the parameter vector into two subvectors containing the coupled and uncoupled terms for estimation, respectively.
