| Requisites: |
It is strongly recommended that you have taken CM20219 or similar before taking this unit
|
| Learning Outcomes:
| Students will be able to:
1. Distinguish low-level from high-level Computer Vision methods, and appreciate the vision problem;
2. Describe edge detection as a linear filter and distinguish between linear filtering and morphology;
3. Describe multi-camera geometry and understand its value in applications such as mosaicing and reconstruction;
4. Understand texture and segmentation, and the role of high-level models in recognition;
5. Appreciate a broad range of contemporary Computer Vision.
|
| Aims: | To understand the ways of analysing images to get information out of them. In order to achieve this it will be necessary to understand the underlyin mathematics and computer techniques.
|
| Skills: | Application of number (T/F).
|
| Content: | Low level vision: Convolution and linear filtering, edge detection and blurring; the role of scale. Morphology. Texture descriptors.
Multi-camera vision: Homographies, epipolar geometry, and the fundamental matrix. Mosaicing and 3D reconstruction.
Segmentation: Hough transforms, unsupervised clustering, scale sieves.
Recognition: The role of prior models: templates, geometry, and statistics.
