Researchers have developed a novel method for recovering the transmission matrix of a deformed graded-index multimode fiber using only proximal measurements. This advancement is significant for enabling general-purpose multimode fiber endoscopy, which has been previously limited by the sensitivity of transmission matrices to fiber deformation. The new approach leverages machine learning, specifically neural networks, to generalize and accurately recover these matrices, overcoming the challenges posed by arbitrary fiber deformations. AI
