Abstract: This article introduces a diffractive neural network-enabled spectral object detection approach (DNN-SOD) to efficiently process massive sky-based multidimensional light field data. DNN-SOD combines the novel exploitation of target spectral features with the intrinsic parallelism of optical computing to process multidimensional information efficiently. DNN-SOD detects targets by segmenting the spectral data cube and processing it with the DNN. The DNN maps spectral intensity to the designated area of the detector, then reconstructs spectral curves, and differentiates targets by comparing them with reference spectral signatures. Classification results from individual sub-spectral data cubes are compiled in sequence, enabling accurate target detection. Simulation results indicate that the architecture achieved an accuracy of 91.56% on the MNIST multi-spectral dataset and 84.27% on the infrared target multi-spectral dataset, validating its feasibility for target detection. This architecture represents an innovative outcome at the intersection of remote sensing and optical computing, significantly advancing the dissemination and practical adoption of optical computing in the field.
