Report on "Dependence of the parameters of digital image noise model on ISO number, temperature and shutter time"PDF by Petteri Ojala, prepared for the 2008 TUT/Nokia Mobile Imaging course.

TIFF images have been obtained from the original proprietary raw format using DCRAW utility (with parameters -D -4 -T -j -v ).
