Abstract
This study employs computational intelligence techniques to optimize complex photonic devices. Traditional surrogate models have limitations in accurately modeling complex devices like vortex phase masks (VPMs). VPMs are essential for observing faint light sources near bright objects, such as exoplanets near stars. To address this, a data-efficient surrogate optimization setup using a deep neural network (U-Net) and particle swarm optimization is proposed. The U-Net achieves high accuracy and efficiency. The resulting surrogate optimization setup outperforms both carefully devised grid-based searches and optimizers.
