Abstract
In the context of pattern recognition, we describe the optical transform patterns that are obtained from either a roughened circular aperture or a disk with an irregular edge. This topic is of interest both in studying the effects of rough apertures in an optical system and as an approximate model for particulate analysis. A statistical analysis is used to establish the effect of the roughness on the optical transform.
