Course Content
Study of computational models of visual perception and and their
implementation in computer systems. Topics include:
- Image formation
- Binary vision systems: segmentation and connected components,
pattern recognition
- Grey scale vision systems: edge and corner detection, matching
- 3-D Vision: geometry of image formation, camera calibration,
stereo, recognizing 3d objects from models
- Motion and navigation: video image processing and time-varying
image analysis
- Forming and analyzing color images
Applications to
- video surveillance
- human motion analysis
- gesture recognition and human-computer interaction
- intelligent highways
are presented.
