Bio: Tali Treibitz received her BA degree in computer science from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in 2001. She is currently a Ph.D. candidate in the department of Electrical Engineering, Technion. Her research involves physics-based computer vision. She is also an active PADI open water scuba instructor.

Abstract: Scattering media exist in bad weather, liquids, biological tissue and even solids. Images taken into scattering media suffer from resolution loss photometric as well as geometric problems. In addition, high noise levels impose resolution limits, even if there is no blur. These problems inhibit vision in such media. In the talk I give an overview of our contributions in this subject:
– Resolution limits imposed by noise
– Limits in polarization-based dehazing
– Geometry limits: The non-single viewpoint nature of imaging systems looking into water through a flat glass.
