CISA is a unique gathering of researchers and engineers engaged in cutting-edge research on computational imaging and sensing using synthetic apertures (SAs). The term SA refers generically to a discrete measurement scheme together with an inverse problem solution that yields imaging or sensing performance better than what a hardware system is inherently capable of, e.g., wider field-of-view and higher angular resolution. An SA may sample propagating wavefields or environmental parameters in the signal domain via linear motion of an antenna or transducer, as in synthetic aperture radar (SAR), sonar (SAS), or channel sounding. Alternatively, an SA may sample in the k-space domain via different look angles around an object or scene, as in computed tomography, spotlight SAR, or Fourier ptychography.

IEEE Conference on Computational Imaging Using Synthetic Apertures (CISA) is technically sponsored by IEEE. The proceedings  of this event are likely to be listed in  prestigious databases such as Scopus, Web of Science (WoS), Ei Compendex, DBLP, Google Scholar, and many others.
