The aim of this unit is to give you an introduction to computational vision: the theory, principles, techniques, algorithms and applications. The unit is structured in terms of topics, each associated to a lecture, follow-up seminar, laboratory sessions and self-study. For each topic, we will cover the underlying theory, the practical challenges, important algorithms and example applications. Practical implementation work will be conducted alongside in small groups throughout the unit using for instance C/C++ and OpenCV.
At the end of the unit you will understand and be able to apply basic theoretical concepts and practical techniques used in image processing and computer vision. Laboratory classes and project work will have exposed you to technology and software used in image analysis and manipulation.
A weekly lecture, seminar and labs (which should be at least 2 hours long)
Examination 50%, Practical Assignments 50%
