Laura Waller - Computational Aberration Correction

Detailed information

Abstract
Computational imaging is permeating cameras and microscopes across many scientific applications, enabling new high-resolution and multi-dimensional measurement capabilities (e.g. phase, 3D, hyperspectral). Many methods require acquisition of multiple images across a large field-of-view, so motion blur and aberrations can cause severe artifacts. This talk will describe new space-time algorithms that correct aberrations and motion artifacts with imperfect optical systems or approximate forward models. Traditional model-based image reconstruction algorithms work together with neural networks to optimize the inverse problem solver and the data capture strategy.
