Giga-scale 3D computational microscopy, Laura Waller, University of California, Berkeley (United States)
Laura Waller is the Ted Van Duzer Endowed Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences (EECS) at UC Berkeley. She is a Senior Fellow at the Berkeley Institute of Data Science, and received her BS (2004), MEng (2005), and PhD (2010) in EECS from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Waller's talk is on computational imaging methods for fast capture of gigapixel-scale 3D intensity and phase images in a commercial microscope that employs illumination-side and detection-side coding of angle (Fourier) space with simple hardware and fast acquisition. The result is high-resolution reconstructions across a large field-of-view, achieving high space-bandwith-time product.

CVAS-348
Automated sports broadcasting, Peter Carr, Disney Research (United States)
 Peter Carr is a Senior Research Engineer at Disney Research, Pittsburgh. He received his PhD from the Australian National University (2010), under the supervision of Prof. Richard Hartley. His thesis, “Enhancing Surveillance Video Captured in Inclement Weather”, explored single-view depth estimation using graph cuts, as well as real-time image processing on graphics hardware. As part of his earlier PhD work in sports analysis, Carr was a research intern at Mitsubishi Electric Research Labs. He received a Master’s in physics from the Centre for Vision Research at York University in Toronto, Canada, and a Bachelor’s of Applied Science (engineering physics) from Queen’s University in Kingston, Canada. |
