2110433 Computer Vision
Semester 2/2553

Description:This course will give you a fundamental introduction to the theory and practice of image and video computing. Students will learn from low-level image processing algorithms to high-level pattern recognition and image understanding concepts. Topics include image formation and representation, binary image processing, feature detection and segmentation, color and shading, texture, object recognition, 3D vision, and dynamic vision. The class will also introduce students to some applications such as machine vision systems for inspection, biomedical image analysis, biometrics, intelligent vehicle, and security and surveillance systems.
Prerequisites: None (However, some programming experience will be useful).
