10.Course objectives (competences)The goal of this course is to introduce the students to the basic concepts and principles of computer vision. The students who will successfully finish the course will be able to design efficient systems for computer vision for handwriting recognition, detection and recognition of faces, movement detection, human and vehicle tracking, gesture recognition, classification and recognition of visual objects, scene analysis and understanding etc.
11.Course contentIntroduction to computer vision. Cameras and optics. Lighting and color. Pixels and filters. Frequency domain image processing. Image pyramids. Machine learning: clustering and classification. Edge detection and line matching. Robust line fitting (Hough transform, RANSAC, etc.). Image clustering and segmentation. GMM (Gaussian Mixture Models). Interest point detection. Feature tracking. Optical flow. Stereo correspondence. Scale-invariant, rotation-invariant image features (SIFT, SURF). Visual word dictionaries. Recognition and classification of visual objects.
