Description: Computational photography is an emerging field that aims to overcome the limitations of conventional digital imaging and display devices by using novel optics, signal processing and computer vision to perform more efficient and accurate measurement as well as produce more compelling and meaningful visualizations of the world around us. It is a convergence of many areas, such as optics, computer vision, computer graphics, image processing, photography, and so on. We will cover topics such as computational sensors with assorted pixel, mobile camera control, light field capture and rendering, computational flash photography, computational illumination for appearance acquisition and 3D reconstruction, reflectance transformation imaging, light transport analysis and novel displays.
