Electron/X-ray ptychography and tomography/laminography

Primary LanguageMATLAB

fold_slice

This is Yi Jiang's customized code for X-ray/electron ptychography and tomography/laminography.

The package is built upon the Matlab code developed by the Science IT and the coherent X-ray scattering (CXS) groups at Paul Scherrer Institut, Switzerland: https://www.psi.ch/en/sls/csaxs/software. Copyright and license issues should follow the agreements (see below) and/or refer to their website.

Getting started

  1. Check the official documentation of the PtychoShelves package to see its software requirement. You need the following matlab toolbox in order to use all the features in the package: Parallel computing (for GPU engines and astra), Curve Fitting, Image processing, Optimization, Signal processing.

  2. Try the data preparation and reconstruction scripts in /fold_slice/ptycho/ to get familiar with the data format and reconstruction parameters.

  3. In addition to the offical documentation, you can also find some notes in /fold_slice/ptycho/notes/. Some of them might be outdated, but it can help you understand the overall code structure.

  4. We have a weekly study group to discuss everything related to image reconstruction problems (e.g., ptychography, tomography, and machine learning). You can find some past lectures here: https://anl.box.com/s/3ddqp3d0r6yv09a49qlaz0i1frrhnxgl

Major differences from the PtychoShelves package

  1. Some data and reconstruction I/O conventions have been changed to accommodate for electron ptychography. See the example scripts for more details.

  2. A modified least-squares maximum likelihood multi-slice ptychography algorithm is added as a new engine: GPU_MS

It's based on the GPU engine (written by Michal Odstrcil) with improvements such as multiple probe modes and bugs fixes. Usage of the code should include additional citation:

  1. We developed an automatic parameter tuning workflow for ptychography using Bayesian optimization with Gaussian processes: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-16041-5

  2. A non-exhaustive list of new features in the GPU and GPU_MS engines:

Features GPU GPU_MS
Mixed-states + multislice ptychography ✖️ ✔️
Dynamic multislice reconstruction ✖️ ✔️
Advanced arbitrary-path fly-scan ptychography ✔️ ✖️
Multi-scan reconstruction ✔️ ✔️
TV regularization on object phase ✔️ ✔️
Grid artifact removal ✔️ ✖️
Automatic parameter selection ✔️ ✖️
