funding! and interpolation!

Kate Storey-Fisher (NYU) got great news today. Her NASA FINESST proposal was funded! So she gets paid for the next three years. And she did it herself. Funding is one of the most challenging, confusing, disheartening, and complicated parts of this job. I don't like it, but it's reality. Congratulations, Storey-Fisher

On my student-research call, I worked on interpolating complex numbers with Avery Simon (NYU). We have a set of phase transforms of two very similar images, which return, for components, complex amplitudes (or amplitudes and phases, if you like). Now the question is: How to interpolate between these images, or their phase transforms? We want to test the hypothesis (put forward in computer-vision research like this) that interpolating in complex phase is way better in many respects than interpolating naively.
