Computer Vision

Catalog description

A first course in computer vision for advanced undergraduate students; that is, the analysis by computer of multidimensional signals provided by imaging sensors including image sequences and three-dimensional images for primarily autonomous applications. Basic techniques for image processing and feature extraction are covered in lectures; topics include image formation, image filtering, edge detection, region growing, shape description, and machine learning for computer vision. Machine learning methods including convolution neural networks, deep learning models for focus attention and image segmentation. The course focus is on the machine interpretation of images for autonomous decision making.
