Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The advent of computational optical imaging has revolutionized the field of imaging sciences by integrating cutting-edge computational algorithms with traditional imaging hardware. This Special Issue aims to present the latest advancements regarding both techniques and applications in the field of computational optical imaging. It ranges in scope from methodology innovations in the field of quantitative phase imaging, volumetric imaging, and hyperspectral imaging, among others, to significant applications, e.g., biomedical studies and computer vision. By merging advanced signal processing, machine learning, and optics, computational optical imaging has opened up new possibilities for imaging systems, enabling enhanced image acquisition, analysis, and understanding.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Photonics is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
