Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and systems for ghost cytometry (GC), which may be used to produce an image of an object without using a spatially resolving detector. This may be used to perform image-free ultrafast fluorescence “imaging” cytometry, based on, for example, a single pixel detector. Spatial information obtained from the motion of cells relative to a patterned optical structure may be compressively converted into signals that arrive sequentially at a single pixel detector. Combinatorial use of the temporal waveform with the intensity distribution of the random or pseudo-random pattern may permit computational reconstruction of cell morphology. Machine learning methods may be applied directly to the compressed waveforms without image reconstruction to enable efficient image-free morphology-based cytometry.

Abstract: An electromagnetic wave detecting device comprising: an emission unit configured to emit electromagnetic waves having coherence; an electromagnetic wave modulating unit configured to modulate one or both of a phase and an amplitude of the emitted electromagnetic waves and to change a state of the modulation relative to an imaging target; and a post-modulation electromagnetic wave intensity detecting unit configured to detect an intensity of post-modulation electromagnetic waves, which are the modulated electromagnetic waves acquired by modulating the electromagnetic waves emitted from the emission unit using the imaging target and the electromagnetic wave modulating unit, using one pixel.

Abstract: Irradiation light in a visible light region is irradiated to a sample while switching irradiation of infrared light IR having a wavelength that corresponds to the infrared absorption spectrum of an observation target material included in the sample between a first state and a second state. A first image and a second image are generated based on the phase distribution, the intensity distribution, and the polarization direction distribution of the light including the irradiation light that has passed through the sample in synchronization with the switching of the infrared light IR irradiation between the first state and the second state. Subsequently, an output image is generated so as to represent one from among the position, size, and shape based on the difference and/or ratio with respect to the pixel values for each pixel between the first image and the second image.
