Dr. Muralidhara SubbaRao (Rao)
is the inventor of Rao Transforms (RTs)
which provide a brand new approach to the the century old problem of
Integral and Differential Equations in Mathematical Physics and Engineering.
They are also useful in shift-variant image and signal restoration, and in
3D Computer Vision through inverse optics. See the following web links for more information:

Dr. Muralidhara SubbaRao (Rao)  graduated with a B. Tech. degree in Electrical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Madras, and an M.S. and a Ph.D., both in Computer Science, from the University of Maryland at College Park.  He is a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at SUNY Stony Brook University. His teaching and research interests are Computer Vision and Digital Image Processing. He has been the Principal Investigator of research grants from industry and the National Science Foundation. He has authored two books,  published over 50 papers in professional journals and conferences, and is the  inventor of 4 U.S. patents that have been licensed to industry. Three other patent applications are pending. He is a pioneer researcher in the field of Computer Vision who invented the Depth-from-Defocus technique that uses arbitrarily defocused images (without requirement of any focused image) for three-dimensional shape recovery. Ten students have completed their Ph.D. thesis research under his supervision. He was a principal member and the Chief Computer Scientist of a high-tech start-up company for online image management in 2000-2001. Most recently, he is the inventor of Rao Transforms (RTs) which provide a brand new approach to the century old problem of Integral and Differential Equations in Mathematical Physics and Engineering. RTs are also useful in shift-variant image and signal restoration, and in 3D Computer Vision through inverse optics.
