"Optical
Information Processing"
Author and
lecturer: Assoc.
Prof. Ilia P. Nikolaev
Duration:
February 7 - April 30 (12 two-hour
lectures in total)
Audience:
5th-year students of the Chair of General Physics and Wave
Processes, Physics Department, MSU (approx. 20 students each
year)
Synopsis:
The course introduces to students basic
optical methods of analog information processing. Fundamentals
of Fourier optics are discussed, on the basis of which the
following specific problems of optical information processing
are considered: spatial filtering-based phase visualization,
iterative phase retrieval, holography, matched filtering,
pattern recognition, image processing, optical wavelet
transform, and other. Besides learning classical results
obtained by Zernike, VanderLugt, Kogelnik, and other pioneers of
optical information processing, students get familiar with main
contemporary developments in this branch of modern optics..
