Abstract
In this chapter, mathematical and computational light scattering models relevant for halftone reproduction and other simulation studies in digital imaging are discussed. While in principle Maxwell's electromagnetic equations provide a very accurate and general description of light propagation, their numerical solution in highly heterogeneous domains is computationally too expensive for the kind of practical applications considered in this book. Therefore, the focus here will be on the computationally much more efficient transport theory. Besides discussing its limitations, the most general solution approach, that is, the Monte Carlo method, is explained and compared with more simple models, which involve further approximations.
