Zheludev TITLE:3D positional metrology of a virus-like nanoparticle with topologically structured light JOURNAL:Applied Physics Letters -------------------- DATA & FILE OVERVIEW -------------------- This dataset contains: 3 Excel files including all initial data for plotting Figures 2-4. Fig.2 data.xlsx contains 2 sheets, where sheet1 is the data for plotting Fig.2(a) and sheet2 is the data for plotting Fig.2(b). Fig.3 data.xlsx contains data for plotting Fig.3. Fig.4 data.xlsx contains 2 sheets, where sheet1 is the data for plotting Fig.4(a) and sheet2 is the data for plotting Fig.4(b). -------------------------- METHODOLOGICAL INFORMATION -------------------------- Fig.2 data was generated from the neural network prediction minus the truth, using Formula (1). Fig.3 data was generated from the neural network learning different diffraction images with different Field of Views and the plotting values are calculated by using Formula (2). Fig.4 data was generated from the neural network prediction minus the truth, using Formula (1).
