Machine learning enables transmission matrix recovery for deformed multimode fibers

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

IMPACT This research could lead to more robust and versatile endoscopic imaging technologies by improving the ability to transmit light through flexible fibers.

    Proximal-Only Transmission Matrix Recovery of an Arbitrarily Deformed Graded-Index Multimode Fiber

    arXiv:2609.14869v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The multimode fiber is among the thinnest imaging conduits available, carrying hundreds to thousands of spatial modes through a cross-section comparable to a human hair, but its endoscopic capabilities are currently limited by the…
