Abstract
In this paper, we present a deep CNN-based approach for multi-class classification of three-dimensional (3-D) objects using phase-only digital holographic information. The 3-D objects considered for the multi-class (four-class) classification task are ‘triangle-square’, ‘circle-square’, ‘square-triangle’, and ‘triangle-circle’. The 3-D object ‘triangle-square’ is considered for Class-1 and the remaining 3-D objects ‘circle-square’, ‘square-circle’, and ‘triangle-circle’ are considered for Class-2, Class-3, and Class-4. The digital holograms of 3-D objects were created using the two-step Phase-Shifting Digital Holography (PSDH) technique and were computationally post-processed to obtain phase-only digital holographic data. Subsequently, a deep CNN was trained on a phase-only image dataset consisting of 2880 images to produce the results. The loss and accuracy curves are presented to validate the performance of the model. Additionally, the results are validated using metrics such as the confusion matrix, classification report, Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve, and precision-recall curve.
