Abstract
A method to determine a fiducial point for holographic data storage is disclosed, which utilizes a gray-level frame to sequentially retrieve a regional image used as a retrieved image with the size equal to that of the frame from a received gray-level image. The gray-level frame is compared with each retrieved image to obtain a plurality of values and construct a 2D proto-matrix. The 2D proto-matrix is transformed into a 2D matrix via letting the values smaller than 0 be 0. The 2D matrix and a retrieving matrix, which has a dimensionality equal to or smaller than that of the frame, are used to obtain an anchor matrix. A greatest value in the central region of the 2D matrix is found to function as an anchor value according to the anchor matrix, thereby find a fiducial point in the gray-level image.
