Ilia V. Safonov graduated from Moscow Engineering Physics Institute (at present time National Research Nuclear University MEPhI) in 1994 as engineer-physicist. He obtained PhD degree in computer science in 1997. Since 2000, he is associated professor in the department of Computer Science and Control Systems at MEPhI. At last decade, he had senior researcher position in RnD of Samsung, Nokia and Intel. At present time, Dr. Ilia Safonov is principal research-scientist at Schlumberger Moscow Research. His interests include image and signal processing, machine learning, measurement systems, computer graphics and vision.

 Ilya V. Kurilin received his MS degree in radio engineering from Novosibirsk State Technical University (NSTU), Russia in 1999 and his PhD degree in theoretical bases of informatics from NSTU in 2006. In 2007, Dr. Ilya Kurilin joined Samsung RnD Institute in Moscow, Russia, where he engaged in image processing projects for multi-function printers and mobile devices. Recently, he leads Media Processing Team specialized in real-time computational imaging for mobile devices, machine learning methods for image analysis and reconstruction, dedicated sensors for visual data processing.

 Michael N. Rychagov received MS degree in acoustical imaging and PhD degree from the Moscow State University (MSU) in 1986 and 1989, respectively. In 2000, he received a Dr.Sc. degree (Habilitation) from the same University. From 1991, he is involved in teaching and research at the National Research University of Electronic Technology (MIET) as an associate professor in the Department of Theoretical and Experimental Physics (1998), professor in the Department of Biomedical Systems (2008), professor in the Department of Informatics and SW for Computer Systems (2014). Since 2004, he joined Samsung R&D Institute in Moscow, Russia (SRR) working on imaging algorithms for printing, scanning and copying, TV and display
