Course Contents

Computer Vision is the branch of Computer Science whose goal is to recognize objects from digital images. These images can be acquired using still and video cameras, infrared cameras, radars, or specialized sensors. Topics include image processing; segmentation, grouping, and boundary detection; recognition and detection; motion estimation and structure from motion.

Course Synopsis

The course will give the understanding of the physics of image formation; the geometry of computer vision (stereo reconstruction and tracking); and statistical methods for detection and classification.

Course Learning Outcomes

Students will be able to : • Understand how computers understand the visual world of humans. • Treat vision as a process of inference from data. • Recognize various visual phenomena.
