CACTI
Coded Aperture Compressive Temporal Imaging
How the CACTI forward model works
A coded aperture shutters the scene at sub-frame rates within one exposure; the detector integrates the shutter-modulated frames into a single 2-D measurement. Recovering the high-speed video frames from one coded snapshot is the inverse problem.

The standard benchmark above assumes a perfectly-calibrated system (all mismatch parameters = 0). Real sensors have calibration error — mask shift, rotation, dispersion-slope drift. Those are tested under a separate mismatch spec and benchmark, where Ω includes the mismatch dimensions (mask_dx, mask_dy, mask_theta, disp_a1_error, disp_alpha_error).
