The paper introduces a self‑supervised neural network that unifies single‑frame Fresnel coherent diffraction imaging (CDI) and overlapped ptychography. By using a fixed, pre‑estimated probe and optimizing with a Poisson negative log‑likelihood objective, the method reconstructs object patches from either a single diffraction frame or multiple overlapping measurements, achieving high SSIM scores and a ten‑fold improvement in photon‑dose efficiency. Demonstrations on synthetic patterns and real datasets from APS and LCLS show robust, high‑throughput reconstructions, with a 36× speedup over iterative solvers for a 10,304‑frame workload.

The paper introduces a two‑stage, projection‑based framework for reconstructing images from only Fourier phase information, using an image‑specific neural prior alongside Fourier‑phase and spatial‑support constraints. In the first stage, the method alternates between enforcing constraints and updating the neural prior, while the second stage refines phase and support with guaranteed convergence. Experiments on 77 microscopy images show that the best variant achieves a pooled PSNR of 31.41 dB, a mean PSNR of 35.75 dB, and a mean SSIM of 0.9531, improving pooled PSNR by 1.51 dB and reducing pooled MSE by 29.3% compared to a constraint‑only baseline.

This paper introduces a fully differentiable jitter correction technique for X‑ray phase‑contrast micro‑CT that uses a deep learning‑based image quality metric to estimate and compensate per‑projection rigid jitter directly from the acquired data, eliminating the need for a motion‑free reference scan. The method adapts a gradient‑based auto‑focus strategy to parallel‑beam geometry, benchmarks several objective functions, and validates the sensitivity of the visual information fidelity (VIF) metric to jitter artifacts. A compact 3D CNN predicts VIF scores from corrupted volumes, while a spatially selective total variation penalty suppresses spurious high‑frequency structures during optimization; experiments on biological specimens from multiple synchrotron beamlines confirm that the pipeline reliably restores fine structural detail across morphologically distinct samples.
