The proposed method for self-focusing DLHM holograms has been contrasted with other methods reported
in the literature: Dubois energy method [3], edgedetection techniques as Laplacian, gradient, and variance
[15], spectral analysis of the reconstructed image [15],
and the study of the contrast of the resulting image via
Tamuras coefficient [6] are the metrics that performance
was contrasted with in regards to the modified enclosed
energy presented in this Letter. For this comparison, we
utilized a DLHM hologram recorded on a CMOS camera
with 1024 1024 square pixels, 6.7 m in side. The sample was illuminated by a 532 nm point source located at
17 mm from the center of the CMOS camera. For testing
the self-focusing method, a total of 220 reconstructed images have been utilized in the reconstruction interval
from 3.5 to 5.7 mm, namely, an offset of 10 m, which
is above the limit imposed by the depth resolution of
6.8 m. The results of such comparison for the metrics
utilized for seeking for the best reconstruction plane
of a DLHM hologram of a section of the head of a
drosophila melanogaster fly are shown in Fig. 3. In panel
(a), a plot of the normalized metric versus the
reconstruction distance is presented. Our modified enclosed energy metric reports a global minimum at a
reconstruction distance of 4.2 mm from the point source.
The evaluated metrics show a global critical point around
the reconstruction distance of 4.9 mm. For the evaluated
metrics, we have chosen experimentally a minimum offset of 10 m to match that utilized for our proposed
method. The corresponding reconstructed images for
these distances are shown in panels (b) and (c), in that
order. The reader can see that the image reconstructed in
panel (b) shows details that are barely or not visible at
all in panel (c). The green ellipse bounds an area in which
a spike-like structure is visible in panel (b) but not in
(c). The red ellipse, two-time magnified, surrounds
