[General] PhD studentship in Machine Learning for Computational Photography - University of Cambridge

A funded PhD studentship is available at the Department of Computer Science and Technology, beginning in either October 2019 or January 2020. This doctoral studentship is for both UK/EU and overseas applicants interested in working on a PhD thesis in the area of machine learning for computational photography. The application must be submitted by 30 June 2019. The studentship will involve work on improving the visual quality of video captured with digital sensors. Such video may be affected by noise, extreme illumination conditions (high dynamic range) and sensor limitations. The aim is to develop algorithms that combine both machine learning and computational photography methods to recover video of higher visual quality than the input. This could involve, for example, upscaling the content from standard- to high-dynamic range or reducing the visibility of noise in dark areas, while ensuring that the reconstructed video is temporarily stable.
