Images are omnipresent in the modern world. We depend on images for progress in medicine, science and technology. Application areas of imaging modalities beyond the visible spectrum include synthetic aperture radar and sonar (SAR and SAS), acoustic imaging, x-ray tomography, and radio astronomy. These imaging modalities provide a platform for a cross fertilization between physical, mathematical, and engineering disciplines related to imaging, image formation, registration, change detection, and automatic feature detection. Because of the breadth involved in imaging modalities beyond the visible spectrum, presentations will highlight the interdisciplinary flavor of imaging methodologies and/or their applications.
