Simon Thibault, professeur titulaire de la Chaire de recherche industrielle en conception optique de l'Université Laval à Québec, donnera un séminaire sur ses activités de recherche, le Mardi 30 novembre 2021 à 14h00, qui sera principalement axé sur les nouvelles thématiques de la conception optique à partir de métasurfaces et de l'IA en conception optique.

Résumé : Over the last decade, AI becomes a more and more popular field particularly in vision to enable many new functions like identifying image contents.  So does deep learning network (DNN) can be used to help or support optical system design.  Design activities highly rely on designer experiences.  So does a trained DNN on previous lens design or photonic devices can be used to generate design starting points.  In this talk, we will explore to most recent applications of DNN in optical and lens design.  We will also show some working example and discuss the future.  In the second part, we will discuss how lens designer can use new material like metasurface in a lens design software.
