1. A method for processing one or more target cells from a plurality of label-free cells, comprising:
(a) obtaining spatial information of the plurality of label-free cells using a detector, wherein obtaining the spatial information occurs during motion of the plurality of label-free cells relative to a patterned optical structure;
(b) compressively converting the spatial information into one or more temporal wave forms, wherein the one or more temporal waveforms comprise one or more intensity distributions imparted by the patterned optical structure; and
(c) applying one or more machine learning classifiers to the one or more temporal waveforms to identify the one or more target cells from the plurality of label-free cells.
