This dissertation introduces several novel computational imaging techniques that capture and analyze the 3D surface shapes and internal layered materials. The research proposes user-friendly and non-invasive imaging systems, constructed using only commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) components, which provide accurate measurement of 3D information that was previously inaccessible. The dissertation focuses on...
X-ray imaging at nano and micro-scale is of great importance for the material science and defense industry. Large penetration depth and low wavelength of x-rays offer an important potential to image objects at high resolution and in a non-invasive process. While the ever-growing community is pursuing novel applications and looking...
Surface appearance represents the sense impression of the surface. In visual art, the artists try to use the appearance of their artworks to express their mental state and philosophy. Researchers in the cultural heritage community has been trying to use different analysis approaches to interpret artworks. In Computer Graphics and...
