Tlis couise gives a bioad oveiview of ile field of compuiei vision, laying ile foundaiions foi advanced
giaduaie level classes and ieseaicl woil in vision. Tlis couise will be conducied wiil an applicaiion
peispeciive. Tleiefoie siudenis will be expecied io implemeni seveial ieclniques leaini in ile leciuies. A
good calculus, lineai algebia and piogiamming baclgiound is expecied foi ilis class. Knowledge of
piobabiliiy and iandom vaiiables is also needed io undeisiand ile ideas piesenied in some modules.
Tle naiuie of ile field of Compuiei Vision is sucl ilai ii combines and iniegiaies ideas fiom seveial
diffeieni aieas, including siaiisiics, paiiein iecogniiion, macline inielligence, decision ileoiy and image
piocessing. Tleiefoie, in an iniioducioiy class, ii is noi possible io covei eacl of ilese aspecis in depil.
Insiead, ile focus of ilis couise is on bieadil, pieseniing seveial diffeieni ieclniques and sysiems in
modeiaie deiail, so as io familiaiize ile siudeni wiil ile Compuiei Vision aiea in geneial, and io pieseni

Tle bioad goals of ilis couise aie:
i. Acquiie a bioad oveiview of ile ileoiy and applicaiions of Compuiei Vision.
:. Undeisiand and appieciaie ile difficuliy of developing compuiei vision sofiwaie and iis ieasons.
. Acquiie an undeisianding of basic compuiei vision ieclniques and mailemaiical models in ile
aieas of ile geomeiiy of image foimaiion, iiansfoimaiions, feaiuie deieciion, compuiaiion of D

(. Undeisiand ile mailemaiical basis of compuiei vision ieclniques, including a few iobusi
esiimaiion ieclniques wlicl aie commonly used in compuiei vision ieseaicl.
. Develop slills io wiiie (and debug) piogiams io solve compuiei vision pioblems, iliougl solving
seveial piogiamming assignmenis, examples and a couise piojeci.
6. Leain aboui some cuiieni 'loi' pioblems in compuiei vision ieseaicl and ile appioacles ilai aie
being puisued.
By ile end of ile semesiei, a siudeni slould lave acquiied ile following slills:
i. Explain some successful applicaiions of compuiei vision algoiiilms and low iley woil.
:. Recognize ile difficuliy in solving ile geneial 'image undeisianding' pioblem.
. Wiiie piogiams io solve basic compuiei vision pioblems using MATLAB.
(. Undeisiand ile mailemaiical basis of seveial compuiei vision ieclniques in ile aieas of image
foimaiion, iiansfoimaiions, feaiuie deieciion, moiion esiimaiion, sieieo, siiuciuie fiom moiion
and oileis.
. Read and undeisiand a ieseaicl papei of modeiaie difficuliy in ile aiea of compuiei vision.
