[edit] Major rewrite of article
In keeping with modern usage of the term "Computational photography", the previous, disputed text of this article has been moved to Computational photography (artistic) and replaced with a complete rewrite. I now realize I did not follow proper procedure when performing this move, because I have left the disputed article's history behind here; I apologize for making this procedural error. In deference to the author of the original article (evidently Steve Mann, whose work I admire), his pioneering paper on high dynamic range imaging has been cited in the rewritten article. The material (in his disputed article) on PDM and PLM should probably be merged into the entries on high dynamic range imaging, and the material on wearable computing should be merged into the wearable computing entry. The material on Charles Wyckoff's non-digital "computational photography" is interesting, but it is not in keeping with modern usage of this phrase and should perhaps be filed under another entry.

[edit] Request for help
The section (of the rewritten article) on computational sensors (chips that compute as they capture images) needs more work by an expert in that area. Also needed is a companion article on computational imaging. That article should include links to tomography, 3D deconvolution, diaphanography, inverse scattering problems, and related imaging techniques used in the sciences, engineering, and medicine.

[edit] Some opinions
To classify researches based on optically coded/non-optically coded may not be the best way. Many works in computational illumination utilize coded optics as well, and it's arguable to put coded-shutter camera in current category. Matte extraction is an old (kinda mature) research topic, and there are too many approaches. Since the original Matte page is still a stub, we should find a person to complete it, and simply leave a link here. Chia-Kai Liang 7 Sept. 2006
[edit] Notification of major extensions
Many papers in SIGGRAPH 2007 are related and should be included.
