- Abstract summary: We characterize the optics with separated aberrations to achieve efficient joint design of complex systems such as smartphones and drones.
An image simulation system is presented to reproduce the genuine imaging procedure of lenses with large field-of-views.
Experiments reveal that the preference for correcting separated aberrations in joint design is as follows: longitudinal chromatic aberration, lateral chromatic aberration, spherical aberration, field curvature, and coma, with astigmatism coming last.

- Abstract: The joint design of the optical system and the downstream algorithm is a
challenging and promising task. Due to the demand for balancing the global
optimal of imaging systems and the computational cost of physical simulation,
existing methods cannot achieve efficient joint design of complex systems such
as smartphones and drones. In this work, starting from the perspective of the
optical design, we characterize the optics with separated aberrations.
Additionally, to bridge the hardware and software without gradients, an image
simulation system is presented to reproduce the genuine imaging procedure of
lenses with large field-of-views. As for aberration correction, we propose a
network to perceive and correct the spatially varying aberrations and validate
its superiority over state-of-the-art methods. Comprehensive experiments reveal
that the preference for correcting separated aberrations in joint design is as
follows: longitudinal chromatic aberration, lateral chromatic aberration,
spherical aberration, field curvature, and coma, with astigmatism coming last.
Drawing from the preference, a 10% reduction in the total track length of the
consumer-level mobile phone lens module is accomplished. Moreover, this
procedure spares more space for manufacturing deviations, realizing
extreme-quality enhancement of computational photography. The optimization
paradigm provides innovative insight into the practical joint design of
sophisticated optical systems and post-processing algorithms.

We study the problem of stereo matching from a pair of images with different resolutions, e.g., those acquired with a tele-wide camera system.
We propose to impose the consistency between two views in a feature space instead of the image space, named feature-metric consistency.
We find that, although a stereo matching network trained with the photometric loss is not optimal, its feature extractor can produce degradation-agnostic and matching-specific features.
