Abstract

An untrained neural network (UNN) paves a new way to realize lensless imaging from single-frame intensity data. Based on the physics engine, such methods utilize the smoothness property of a convolutional kernel and provide an iterative self-supervised learning framework to release the needs of an end-to-end training scheme with a large dataset. However, the intrinsic overfitting problem of UNN is a challenging issue for stable and robust reconstruction. To address it, we model the phase retrieval problem into a dual-constrained untrained network, in which a phase-amplitude alternating optimization framework is designed to split the intensity-to-phase problem into two tasks: phase and amplitude optimization. In the process of phase optimization, we combine a deep image prior with a total variation prior to retrain the loss function for the phase update. In the process of amplitude optimization, a total variation denoising-based Wirtinger gradient descent method is constructed to form an amplitude constraint. Alternative iterations of the two tasks result in high-performance wavefield reconstruction. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of our method.
