Abstract

A computer-implemented method for designing an image processing device includes defining a loss function within a simulation space composed of a plurality of voxels; defining an initial structure for one or more physical features of a metasurface and one or more architectural features of a neural network in the simulation space; determining, using a computer system, values for at least one structural parameter, and/or at least one functional parameter for the one or more physical features and at least one architectural parameter for the one or more architectural features, using a numerical solver to solve Maxwell's equations so that a loss determined according to the loss function is within a threshold loss; defining a final structure of the metasurface based on the values for the one or more structural parameters; and defining a final structure of the neural network based on the values for the at least one architectural parameter.
