Course Objectives: | The aim of the course is to study advanced image processing computer vision concepts, which tries to “make computers see and interpret” using the observations in the form of multiple 2D (or 3D) images and video. The course will provide the participants with a background in computer vision both in practical aspects as being able to implement computer vision algorithms, and their mathematical understanding. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; 1. Discuss the main problems of advanced computer vision, its uses and applications 2. Design various advanced feature extraction methods. 3.Describe advanced segmentation approaches involving e.g. markov random fields, graph based methods. 4.Define and compute structure from motion using direct methods 5.Describe structure from motion using factorization 6.Discuss multibody motion segmentation algorithms 7.Discuss shape from shading 8.Apply stereo vision principles 9.Describe 2D object recognition approaches 10.Design face recognition algorithms |
