Introduction

Computational photography is a hot topic for both computer graphics and computer vision. It studies how to combine, edit, acquire and improve digital photos/videos with computation or novel camera/illumination models. Its general goal is to break conventional cameras' limitations in quality, resolution, dynamic range and camera models. Typical topics include upsamping, deblurring, stabilization, denoising, high dynamic range imaging, light field cameras and so on. These topics are not only interesting research problems, but also often find immediate use in practice.
