Analogue optical pattern recognition for cross‐correlational CNN
Abstract Pattern recognition in convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is computationally intensive due to its reliance on 2D convolutions, requiring significant processing power and time. This paper proposes an analogue optical hardware system to improve CNN efficiency, focusing on forward propagation tasks such as data preparation, correlation, and ...

Reduced order modelling of air‐puff test for corneal material characterisation
Abstract Models of the fluid–structure interaction (FSI) model for the air‐puff test were analysed. Using Abaqus, the air‐puff test is applied to eyes with varying biomechanical parameters, such as material properties, corneal thickness, and radius.
