What is a computational imaging?

A Computational Imaging job involves developing algorithms and techniques to enhance, reconstruct, or extract information from images using computational methods. Professionals in this field work at the intersection of imaging hardware, signal processing, and artificial intelligence to improve image quality and enable new imaging capabilities. These roles are common in industries like medical imaging, computer vision, scientific research, and autonomous systems. Strong skills in programming, mathematics, and image processing are typically required.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in computational imaging, and why are they important?

To thrive in Computational Imaging, you need a strong background in mathematics, computer science, and image processing, usually supported by an advanced degree in a related field. Expertise with programming languages like Python or MATLAB, experience with imaging software, and sometimes familiarity with machine learning frameworks are essential. Strong problem-solving abilities, teamwork, and effective communication skills set top candidates apart. These capabilities enable professionals to design and implement innovative algorithms that solve complex imaging challenges across industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, and remote sensing.

What types of projects might a computational imaging professional work on in a typical company?

Computational Imaging professionals often work on projects such as developing advanced algorithms for medical image reconstruction, enhancing image quality in cameras, or creating systems for non-destructive testing in manufacturing. Day-to-day responsibilities can include collaborating with multidisciplinary teams of engineers, scientists, and product managers to solve complex imaging problems and support product development. These roles may involve both research and prototyping, as well as optimizing solutions for deployment in real-world applications. The variety of projects allows for skill growth and frequent opportunities to see your work directly impact products and services.

Description
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
  • Under minimal supervision, performs a variety of defined research and laboratory tasks requiring engineering knowledge according to prescribed protocols.
  • This includes integration of hardware and software for custom laboratory equipment and interfacing with engineering support at companies.
  • Uses independent judgement in applying or adapting engineering research techniques in experiments, including design and construction of electrical and/or mechanical parts for research purposes.
  • Able to independently select and use specialized software for electrical circuit and mechanical design, construction of parts, and/or working with engineering companies to develop designs and ensure that design specifications are met.
  • Sets up and performs experiments with minimal supervision.
  • Ensures that adequate supplies are purchased for performing experiments.
  • With minimal supervision maintains appropriate certifications for performance of experiments (i.e. IRB, IACUC protocols and other lab certifications).
  • May assist in protocol design for experimental and/or computational studies.
  • Investigates and proposes alterative experimental and computational approaches for consideration by a principal investigator; this includes hardware and software development.
  • Assists in planning and scheduling research procedures.
  • Demonstrates and trains other in the proper use of research techniques, including laboratory equipment, data analysis, and computerized methodologies.
  • Calibrates, troubleshoots, and performs routine repair and maintenance of equipment and/or computers with minimal supervision.
  • Develops data processing and analysis procedures using specialized engineering software such as Matlab, LabView, Python, Vicon Workstation, SolidWorks, etc., using matrix algebra, calculus, and differential equations, Fourier analysis, as well as other engineering analysis techniques; create accompanying graphs, tables, and other data compilation as needed.
  • Reviews literature for related research developments and techniques and compiles findings.
  • Monitors experimental and data analysis processes to maintain quality assurance standards.
  • Records results of studies, compiles and analyzes data and prepares engineering analyses for plotting, statistical analysis, and visualization.
  • May assist in preparation of figures and text for grants and papers.
  • May co-author or co-present research with PI as collaborating author.
  • Performs other duties as required.

ADDITIONAL JOB DETAILS:
  • Responsibilities include analysis of large radiographic imaging or digital pathology datasets, managing complex databases, conducting advanced data analytics, mapping and generating result summaries and methodologic documentation appropriate for the project, testing and developing novel computational approaches as required by various research goals particularly in the field of medical imaging AI research, and contributing to dissemination efforts.
  • Provide interpretation of various statistical analyses and results, develop predictions, and make recommendations on overall study design.
  • Understanding of computational imaging data formats (eg. MHA, NIFTI).
  • Experience with public databases (e.g. TCGA, TCIA, IDC).
  • Familiarity with APIs, database querying, and data management.
  • Experience with computational imaging software packages (eg. ITK Snap, 3D Slicer, PyTorch, PyRadiomics,) and ability to adapt and implement new software, as necessary.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:
  • A bachelor's or master's degree in Biomedical Engineering or related engineering/quantitative science field, and two years of experience in biomedical laboratory research, OR an equivalent combination of experience, education, and training.
