Laura Waller - Computational Microscopy (March 23, 2022)

Computational imaging involves the joint design of imaging system hardware and software, optimizing the entire pipeline from acquisition to reconstruction. Computers can replace bulky and expensive optics by solving computational inverse problems that reconstruct images from scattered light. In this talk, Laura Waller will describe new microscopes that use computational imaging to enable 3D aberration and phase measurement using simple hardware that is easily adoptable combined with advanced image reconstruction algorithms based on large-scale optimization and learning.
