MRes in Computing Sciences in Norwich United Kingdom | University of East Anglia

The School of Computing Sciences conducts cutting-edge research applying computational methods across various fields, partnering with global corporations on studies addressing current and future challenges. Our work is structured around five specialized labs: Colour & Imaging, Computational Biology, Smart Emerging Technologies, Data Science and Statistics, and Graphics, Vision and Speech. The Colour & Imaging Laboratory focuses on interdisciplinary research combining Computer Vision, Human Perception, and Physics/Engineering. Key research domains include: (1) mobile imaging technology development at the intersection of computer vision and perception, (2) computational photography bridging computer vision and physics to create innovative camera systems like RGB-NIR imaging, and (3) perceptual engineering optimizing visual environments through spectral design. Fundamental computer science principles underpin our work, with specialized knowledge in algorithm optimization, machine/deep learning, signal processing, color science for creative applications, image fusion, medical imaging, and environmental monitoring technologies. Our facility boasts professional SLR cameras, HDR displays, spectroradiometers, tunable lighting systems, and advanced GPU workstations for deep learning applications. The lab has secured significant funding from UK Research Councils (EPSRC), European Union programs, and industry leaders including Apple and HP. Notably, the Colour & Imaging Lab leads university commercialization efforts, having launched four successful spin-off companies, with Imsense Ltd being acquired by a major industry player in 2010.
