All-optical neural networks (AONNs) have emerged as a promising paradigm for ultrafast and energy-efficient computation. These networks typically consist of multiple serially connected layers between input and output layers--a configuration we term spatially series AONNs, with deep neural networks (DNNs) being the most prominent examples. However, such series architectures suffer from progressive signal degradation during information propagation and critically require additional nonlinearity designs to model complex relationships effectively. Here we propose a spatially parallel architecture for all-optical neural networks (SP-AONNs). Unlike series architecture that sequentially processes information through consecutively connected optical layers, SP-AONNs divide the input signal into identical copies fed simultaneously into separate optical layers. Through coherent interference between these parallel linear sub-networks, SP-AONNs inherently enable nonlinear computation without relying on active nonlinear components or iterative updates. We implemented a modular 4F optical system for SP-AONNs and evaluated its performance across multiple image classification benchmarks. Experimental results demonstrate that increasing the number of parallel sub-networks consistently enhances accuracy, improves noise robustness, and expands model expressivity. Our findings highlight spatial parallelism as a practical and scalable strategy for advancing the capabilities of optical neural computing.

Inferring representations of 3D scenes from 2D observations is a fundamental problem of computer graphics, computer vision, and artificial intelligence.

Meanwhile, we make the kernel locally supported without breaking the equivariance.

To this end, we propose a novel method, called DELIFFAS, which parameterizes the appearance of the human as a surface light field that is attached to a controllable and deforming human mesh model.

Structured illumination microscopy (SIM) is a pivotal technique for dynamic subcellular imaging in live cells. Conventional SIM reconstruction algorithms depend on accurately estimating the illumination pattern and can introduce artefacts when this estimation is imprecise. Although recent deep learning-based SIM reconstruction methods have improved speed, accuracy, and robustness, they often struggle with out-of-distribution data. To address this limitation, we propose an Awareness-of-Light-field SIM (AL-SIM) reconstruction approach that directly estimates the actual light field to correct for errors arising from data distribution shifts. Through comprehensive experiments on both simulated filament structures and live BSC1 cells, our method demonstrates a 7% reduction in the normalized root mean square error (NRMSE) and substantially lowers reconstruction artefacts. By minimizing these artefacts and improving overall accuracy, AL-SIM broadens the applicability of SIM for complex biological systems.
