Stitching interferometry is essential for X-ray mirror metrology where lateral distortion and pixel size are critical factors influencing its accuracy. Simulations and experiments reveal that 1% error in pixel size causes a 2% deviation in the radius of curvature. After correcting pixel size, the stitching profile error of an elliptical mirror reduces from 2 μm to 250 nm (peak-to-valley). Lateral distortion correction can further reduce retrace errors. For stitching measurements using small sub-apertures, distortion correction can be minor if the average pixel size has been corrected and the actual distortion along the stitching direction is small.

Accurate building segmentation has become critical in various fields such as urban management, urban planning, mapping, and navigation. With the increasing diversity in the number, size, and shape of buildings, convolutional neural networks have been used to segment and extract buildings from such images, resulting in increased efficiency and utilization of image features. We propose a building semantic segmentation method to improve the traditional Unet convolutional neural network by integrating attention mechanism and boundary detection.

However, current spatial light modulators (SLMs) are constrained by pixel size and resolution, limiting display size. Additionally, existing holographic displays have narrow viewing angles due to device diffraction limits, algorithms, and optical configurations.

As the bucket detector array is artificially generated by post-pixel-binning of the images collected with the same detector as that in the reference arm, the unique advantages of SAXGI are not verified experimentally. In this paper, we developed a systematic solution of the experimental implementation of SAXGI, with the automatic interchange of 2× and 20× optical magnification of the detector for object and reference signal acquisition respectively, together with electronic pixel-binning of the detector.

However, the performance deteriorates rapidly when the size of pixels varies due to fabrication errors. In this work, we propose an inverse design method called robust adjoint method to design fabrication-tolerant digital nanophotonic devices.
