contents We report an in-silico demonstration of an all-optical cell classification system using a single-layer diffractive neural network (DNN) optimized for real-world biomedical images. Implemented virtually with a spatial light modulator (SLM), the DNN was numerically trained via backpropagation to differentiate breast and lung cancer cells. The training utilized experimentally acquired phase and amplitude images from optofluidic time-stretch quantitative phase imaging. Classification was simulated by computing the optical intensities at the detection plane. The optimized DNN achieved 93.6% accuracy, approaching that of conventional convolutional neural networks. This study highlights the potential of SLM-based DNNs for ultrafast, energy-efficient biomedical image processing in practical optical computing scenarios.
