Measurements achieved with ptychographic imaging are a special case of diffraction measurements. They are generated by illuminating small parts of a sample with, e.g., a focused X-ray beam. By shifting the sample, a set of far-field…

It was recently shown that the phase retrieval imaging of a sample can be modeled as a simple convolution process. Sometimes, such a convolution depends on physical parameters of the sample which are difficult to estimate a priori. In this…
