The key issue is long time correlations for acceptable imaging quality. To overcome the issue, we propose parallel retina-like computational ghost imaging (PRGI) method to improve the performance of CGI. In the PRGI scheme, sampling and reconstruction are carried out by using the patterns which are divided into blocks from designed retina-like patterns. Then, the reconstructed image of each block is stitched into the entire image corresponding to the object. The simulations demonstrate that the proposed PRGI method can obtain a sharper image while greatly reducing the time cost than CGI based on compressive sensing (CSGI), parallel architecture (PGI), and retina-like structure (RGI), thereby improving the performance of CGI. The proposed method with reasonable structure design and variable selection may lead to improve performance for similar imaging methods and provide a novel technique for real-time imaging applications.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20247093","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,13]],"date-time":"2020-12-13T23:39:36Z","timestamp":1607902776000},"page":"7093","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["A Novel Approach of Parallel Retina-Like Computational Ghost Imaging"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Jie","family":"Cao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Key Laboratory of Biomimetic Robots and Systems, Ministry of Education, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dong","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Key Laboratory of Biomimetic Robots and Systems, Ministry of Education, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fanghua","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Key Laboratory of Biomimetic Robots and Systems, Ministry of Education, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huan","family":"Cui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Key Laboratory of Biomimetic Robots and Systems, Ministry of Education, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yingqiang","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Key Laboratory of Biomimetic Robots and Systems, Ministry of Education, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qun","family":"Hao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Optics and Photonics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Key Laboratory of Biomimetic Robots and Systems, Ministry of Education, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"R3429","DOI":"10.1103\/PhysRevA.52.R3429","article-title":"Optical imaging by means of two-photon quantum entanglement","volume":"52","author":"Pittman","year":"1995","journal-title":"Phys.
