Machine Vision

Catalog description

This course introduces concepts and techniques in machine vision. Students successfully completing this course will be able to apply a variety of image processing techniques for the design and analysis of efficient algorithms for real-world applications, such as optical character recognition, face detection and recognition, motion estimation, human tracking, and gesture recognition. Topics include basic image enhancement, corner and edge detection, image morphology, linear and non-linear filters, image transformations, camera models, two-dimensional and three-dimensional image geometry, clustering and segmentation (and classification), object recognition and Bag-of-Words models, image texture, shape analysis, and tracking.
