In this Paper, we design an optimal binary phase computer generated hologram for Pattern generation using combined genetic algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm together. To design an optimal binary phase computer generated hologram, in searching process of the proposed method, the simple genetic algorithm is used to get an initial random transmittance function of simulated annealing algorithm. Computer simulation shows that the proposed algorithm has better performance than the genetic algorithm or simulated annealing algorithm of terms of diffraction efficiency

Computer-generated holography requires much more computation costs and memory space rather than image processing. We implemented the diffraction calculation with low-precision and mixed-precision floating point numbers and compared the processing time and quality of the hologram with various precision. We compared diffraction quality with double, single and bfloat16 precision. bfloat16 shows 5.94x and 1.52x times faster performance than double precision and single precision. Also, bfloat16 shows lower PSNR and SSIM and higher MSE than other precision. However, there is no significant effect on reconstructed images. These results show low precision, like bfloat16, can be utilized for computer-generated holography.

In this paper, we proposed an stable optical security system using interferometer and cascaded phase keys. For the encryption process, a BPCGH(binary phase computer generated hologram) that reconstructs the origial image is designed, using an iterative algorithm and the resulting hologram is regarded as the image to be encrypted. The BPCGH is encrypted through the exclusive-OR operation with the random generated phase key image. For the decryption process, we cascade the encrypted image and phase key image and interfere with reference wave. Then decrypted hologram image is transformed into phase information. Finally, the origianl image is recovered by an inverse Fourier transformation of the phase information. During this process, interference intensity is very sensitive to external vibrations. a stable interference pattern is obtained using self-pumped phase-conjugate minor made of the photorefractive material. In the proposed security system, without a random generated key image, the original image can not be recovered. And we recover another hologram pattern according to the key images, so can be used an authorized system.

Since the grating optical low-pass fillet degrades the resolution of images, we developed a hologram optical low-pass filter that show low degradation of the image and studied its characteristics. We designed the hologram that divides input beam into circular shaped 21 beams with a Monte-Carlo based hologram generation program and calculated its MTE characteristics to compare it with that of a grating filter. The hologram was manufactured through the optical lithography process and attached to a digital imaging device (Zoran 732212) for measurement. The moirfiltering is compared with zone plate images and the resolution loss is measured with USAF resolution chart. The hologram optical low-pass filter showed better characteristics in both moly filtering and resolution.

In this thesis, Lohmann's algorithm and FFT (fast Fourier transform) are used to synthesize binary-phase holograms. FFT computing is carried out for the calculation of complex wavefronts of $128{\times}128$ sampling points of an object that is numerically specified. Then using the Lohmann's algorithm, the amplitude and the phase of complex wavefronts are encoded in binary holograms on each sampling points. PC (personal computer) and laser printer are used to plot binary-phase holograms and CGH (computer generated holograms) films are obtained from this plot by photographic reduction. Holographic images of numerically specified objects are reconstructed from the He-Ne laser and the inverse Fourier optics system. We estimate the quality of holographic images according to the sampling number, application of random phase, amplitude clipping and bleaching the CGH film. We derive optimized conditions to reconstruct better holographic images and to reduce the speckle noise. FFT and Lohmann's algorithm are implemented with MS Visual BASIC 6.0 for the programming of binary-phase hologram.

Finger-print recognition is achieved by comparing an input finger-print image with the stored images in the computer, and finally by determining agreement or disagreement. Encryption and decryption are necessary in the finger-print recognition process. In these process CGH (Computer Generated Hologram) is used, and finger-print images reconstructed from the CGHs are compared. In this paper, two methods of recognition are used, one is to compare the finger-print images of each other reconstructed from their CGHs and the other is to compare the CGHs to each other directly, to analyze the differences of finger-print recognition capability between these two methods. Experimental results show that the capability of finger-print recognition for comparing the CGHs of the two is about 150 times higher than in case of comparing the reconstructed finger-print images. Especially the changes of characteristics according to modulation types of CGH are analyzed.

In this study we propose the novel optimization method of the phase-only computer-generated hologram (CGH), to improve calculation speed compared to the conventional method. While the conventional method is calculated using numerical analysis, the novel method is calculated using the phase-shift characteristic of Fourier transformation. In addition, the selectivity of noise filtering lets it decrease the calculation time. The validity of the reconstructed image using the novel method is verified by comparing simulation results to ideal and conventional data, and the improvement of texture and sharpness of the reconstructed image is confirmed by simulation.

Since the computational complexity for hologram generation increases exponentially with respect to the size of the point cloud, parallel processing using CUDA and/or OpenCL library based on multiple GPUs has recently become popular. The CUDA kernel for parallelization needs to consist of threads, blocks, and grids properly in accordance with the number of cores and the memory size in the GPU. In addition, in case of multiple GPU environments, the distribution in grid-by-grid, in block-by-block, or in thread-by-thread is needed according to the number of GPUs. In order to evaluate the performance of CGH generation, we compared the computational speed in CPU, in single GPU, and in multi-GPU environments by gradually increasing the number of points in a point cloud from 10 to 1,000,000. We also present a memory structure design and a calculation method required in the CUDA-based parallel processing to accelerate the CGH (Computer Generated Hologram) generation operation in multiple GPU environments.

본 논문에서는 연산에 의해 디지털 홀로그램(computer-generated hologram, CGH)을 생성할 때 많은 계산량으로 속도가 지연되는 문제를 해결하기 위해 연산식을 수정하고 이를 하드웨어로 구현한다. 기존에 제시된 CGH 연산 알고리즘에 비해 제안한 알고리즘은 디지털 홀로그램의 완벽한 병렬처리가 가능하게 하여 속도지연의 문제를 해소한다. 구현 결과 하드웨어가 주어진다면 최대 3사이클에 한 광원으로부터의 홀로그램성분 전체를 연산할 수 있고, 파이프라인 기법을 사용하면 두 사이클의 지연시간 후 매 사이클마다 한 광원에 대한 홀로그램 연산결과를 얻을 수 있다.
