2 Outline Introductory phase retrieval example Astronomical imaging Mathematical background The problem Iterative transform algorithms Nonlinear optimization algorithms Recent application examples Lensless coherent optical imaging Non-crystallographic (x-ray) diffraction JRF -2

3 Passive Imaging of Astronomical/Space Objects Problem: atmospheric turbulence causes phase errors, limits resolution 1 arc-sec 5*10 6 rad. λ/ r o for λ = 0.5 μm and r o = 10 cm Best resolution as though through only 10 cm aperture (vs. Keck 10 m) Solutions: Hubble Space Telescope (2.4 m diameter), $2 B; JWST $8 B Adaptive optics + laser guide star, $10 s M Optical interferometry, $10 s M Stellar speckle interferometry, << $1 M aberrated optical system } object JWST Naval Prototype Optical Interferometer Lick Observatory blurred image JRF -3

4 Labeyrie s Stellar Speckle Interferometry 1. Record blurred images: g k (x,y ) = f (x, y) s k (x,y), k = 1,..., K where s k (x, y) is k th point-spread function due to atmospheric turbulence 2. Fourier transform: G k (u,v ) = F (u,v )S k (u,v ), where S k (u, v) is k th optical transfer function k = 1,..., K 3. Magnitude square and average: 1 K G K k (u,v) 2 = F(u,v ) 2 1 K k =1 K k =1 1 K 4. Measure or determine transfer function S K k (u,v ) 2 k =1 atmospheric model or measure reference star 5. Divide by 1 K K S k (u,v ) 2 S k (u,v ) 2 to get F (u,v ) 2 = squared Fourier magnitude k =1 A.

5 Image Reconstruction from Simulated Speckle Interferometry Data Labeyri s stellar speckle interferometry gives this J.R. Fienup, "Phase Retrieval Algorithms: A Comparison," Appl. Opt. 21, (1982). JRF -5

6 Reconstruction from Fourier Magnitude Fourier magnitude of astronomical object can come from Stellar speckle interferometry Michelson stellar (amplitude) interferometry Intensity interferometry (Hanbury Brown Twiss) For coherently illuminated objects: lensless imaging e.g. x-ray diffraction, laser remote sensing From MRI, etc., Any imaging modality where when Fourier phase is lost Have Fourier magnitude; Want to reconstruct an image from it JRF -6

7 Fourier transform: F (u,v) = Inverse transform: f (x,y) = F(u,v ) = Phase retrieval problem: Phase Retrieval Basics f (x,y)e i 2π (ux +vy ) dxdy Given F (u,v ) and some constraints on f (x,y ), Reconstruct f (x,y ), or equivalently retrieve ψ (u,v ) [ ] = F (u,v)e iψ (u,v ) = F f(x,y ) F (u,v)e i 2π (ux +vy ) dudv = F 1 F (u,v ) [ ] F [ f (x,y)] = F [ e ic f (x x o,y y o )] = F [ e ic f * ( x x o, y y o )] (Inherent ambiguities: phase constant, images shifts, twin image all result in same data) Autocorrelation: [ ] r f (x,y ) = f ( x, y )f * ( x x, y y )d x d y = F 1 F (u,v ) 2 Patterson function in crystallography is an aliased version of the autocorrelation Need Nyquist sampling of the Fourier intensity to avoid aliasing JRF -7

8 Constraints in Phase Retrieval Nonnegativity constraint: f(x, y) 0 True for ordinary incoherent imaging, x-ray diffraction, MRI, etc. Not true for wavefront sensing or coherent imaging The support of an object is the set of points over which it is nonzero Meaningful for imaging objects of finite extent on dark backgrounds Wavefront sensing through a known aperture Essential for complex-valued objects Atomiticity when have angstrom-level resolution For crystals -- not applicable for coarser-resolution, single-particle Object intensity constraint (wish to reconstruct object phase) E.g., measure wavefront intensity in two planes (Gerchberg-Saxton) If available, supersedes support constraint Statistical information Maximum entropy, total variations, sparsity, sharpness, compactness, weak object phase, smooth object phase, etc. JRF -8

9 Phase is More Important than Amplitude G FT[G] phase{ft[g]} FT -1 [ FT[G] exp[i phase{ft[m]}]] M FT[M] phase{ft[m]} FT -1 [ FT[M] exp[i phase{ft[g]}]] JRF -9

10 Is Phase Retrieval Possible? 1970 s: Some said, Can t be done. The solution won t be unique. JRF -10

11 First Phase Retrieval Result (a) Original object, (b) Fourier modulus data, (c) Initial estimate (d) (f) Reconstructed images number of iterations: (d) 20, (e) 230, (f) 600 Reference: J.R. Fienup, Optics Letters, Vol 3., pp (1978). JRF -11

12 Iterative Transform Algorithm START: Initial Estimate g F F { } G = G e i φ = Gerchberg-Saxton algorithm if have measured intensities in both domains Constraints: Support, (Nonnegativity) Form New Input Using Image Constraints Satisfy Fourier Domain Constraints Measured Data: Magnitude, F Measured intensity g' 1 i F { } G' = F e F 1 φ Hybrid Input-Output version g g k +1 ( x,y ) = k ( x,y ), g k g k ( x,y ) β g k ( x,y ), g k ( x,y ) satisfies constraints x,y ( ) violates constraints JRF -12

13 Error Reduction = Projection onto Sets Constraint Set #1 (non-convex) Start Constraint Set #2 (convex) b a S If is a, convex: b S, If a, b S, then c = t a + (1 t) b S, then 0 t c 1= t a + ( 1 t )b S, 0 t 1 JRF -13

14 Error reduction algorithm Error-Reduction and HIO ER: g k +1 ( x ) = g k x ( ), x S & g k ( x ) 0 0, otherwise Satisfy constraints in object domain Equivalent to projection onto (nonconvex) sets algorithm Proof of convergence (weak sense) In practice: slow, prone to stagnation, gets trapped in local minima Hybrid-input-output algorithm HIO: g k +1 ( x ) = g k x g k x ( ), x S & g k ( x ) 0 ( ) β g k ( x ), otherwise Uses negative feedback idea from control theory β is feedback constant No convergence proof (can increase errors temporarily) In practice: much faster than ER, can climb out of local minima H. Takajo, T. Takahashi et al, J. Opt. Soc. Am. A (1997 & 1998) JRF -14

16 Error Metric versus Iteration Number JRF -16

17 Autocorrelation Support = Sum of Support Sets Complex Fourier transform F ( u) = f ( x )e i 2πux dx Object Support S = { x : f ( x ) > 0} Set addition (Minkowski sum) and multiplication a X + by a x + b y : x X and y Y r f Autocorrelation support A = ( ) y S = F [ f ( x )] { } In r f x, f (y + x) is f (x) translated by y ( x ) is a weighted sum of translated versions of f (x), weighted by f (y) ( S y ) = S S = { x y : x,y S} u, x may be multidimensional Autocorrelation function r f ( x ) = f ( y )f ( y x )dy = f ( y )f ( y + x )dy = F 1 F u ( ) 2 assuming f is real, nonnegative A can have points missing if f is complex-valued or bipolar Solve the inverse problem: Given A, find the smallest set L inside of which all S fit, where A = S S JRF -17

18 Bounds on Object Support Autocorrelation: r f (x,y ) = f ( x, y )f * ( x x, y y )d x d y = F 1 F (u,v ) 2 a 1 0 Object Support a 2 Autocorrelation Support a 1 0 a 2 Triple Intersection of Autocorrelation Supports Triple-Intersection Rule: [Crimmins, Fienup, & Thelen, JOSA A 7, 3 (1990)] JRF -18

24 Object: electron density function Periodic, continuous X-ray Crystallography Measurements Fourier intensity, undersampled Bragg peaks are half-nyquist sampled Missing phase Prior information Nonnegativity (usually) Atomiticity = object consists of a finite number of atoms within a unit cell Just need to recover the 3-D locations and strengths of a number of electron peaks To reconstruct an electron density function, need to retrieve the Fourier phase solve the phase retrieval problem An early form of computational imaging and of compressive sensing JRF -24

32 Solution to Support Constraint Issues: Illumination Pattern with Separated Parts Uniqueness more likely for separated support (areas with zero in between) m T.R. Crimmins and J.R. Fienup, "Uniqueness of Phase Retrieval for Functions with Sufficiently Disconnected Support," J. Opt. Soc. Am. 73, (1983) Phase retrieval works particularly well for support constraints with separated parts m J.R. Fienup, "Reconstruction of a Complex-Valued Object from the Modulus of Its Fourier Transform Using a Support Constraint," J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 4, (1987) Parts separated in x and y give fringes in detected speckle pattern m m If one separated part was a delta-function, then would be a hologram Somehow makes phase more readily available JRF -32
