We implement a novel limited-memory Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shanno (L-BFGS) optimisation algorithm with cross entropy (CE) loss function, to produce phase-only computer-generated hologram (CGH) for holographic displays, with validation on a binary-phase modulation holographic projector.
In a computer-generated holographic projection system, the image is generated via diffraction of light from spatial light modulators. In this process, several factors contribute to non-linearities between the replay field and the target image. This article evaluates the gamma response of the overall system experimentally, and then applies a gamma correction method, with the aim of increasing the image quality of a holographic projection system. Both a notable increase in replay field quality alongside a significant reduction in mean squared error were observed, demonstrating the effectiveness of gamma correction in holographic projection.
