CALL FOR PAPERS

IEEE JOURNAL OF SELECTED TOPICS IN SIGNAL PROCESSING (JSTSP)
Special Issue on Light Field Image Processing
As a representative approach for passive depth sensing, light field imaging and processing techniques has attracted
great attentions from computer vision, computer graphics and signal processing communities. Specifically, light fields
implicitly capture 3D scene geometry and reflectance properties by coding the spatial and angular information of a
scene, allowing a wide range of applications. Compared with 2D image, this new visual information representation
provides ways for better vision understanding and interacting capability for human. Traditional vision problems like
image segmentation, scene parsing, salience detection, video stabilization, motion tracking, object detection, tracking
and recognition, etc. can be better solved using the light field information. Moreover, it allows new applications
including light field display, light field microscopy, etc. However, compared with commercial 3D depth sensing
devices such as Microsoft Kinect using active 3D imaging approaches (structure light and time-of-flight imaging),
light field imaging still suffers from crucial problems such as low spatial resolution and poor reconstructed depth
quality. Therefore, the light field research is still calling for better theories and methods, targeting for more efficient
data capture and better ways for data analysis. This special issue aims at such goal, and will deliver the timely and
state-of-the-art research works on light field capture, processing, display and their applications. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:
 Image Processing for Multiview Image
 Light Field Camera and Capture
 Camera Array Technique and System
 Light Field Synthesis
 Depth Estimation Using Light Field
 Light Field Display
 Computer Vision Using Light Field
 Light Field Microscopy
 Time-of-Flight Depth Sensing
 Light Field Data Compression and Transmission
 Snapshot Depth Acquisition and Processing
 Light Field Editing and Application
 Plenoptic Imaging and Signal Processing
 Light Field for VR/AR/MR
 Light Field Super-resolution
 Deep Learning Methods for Light Field Data
Tutorial or overview papers, creative papers outside the areas listed above but related to the overall scope of the special
issue are also welcome. Prospective authors can contact the Guest Editors to ascertain interest on such topics.
Submission of a paper to JSTSP is permitted only if the paper has not been submitted, accepted, published, or
copyrighted in another journal. Papers that have been published in conference and workshop proceedings may be
submitted for consideration to JSTSP provided that (i) the authors cite their earlier work; (ii) the papers are not
identical; and (iii) the journal publication includes novel elements (e.g., more comprehensive experiments). For
