Course objectives
Computer Vision is a course which is closely related with robotics and image analysis. The course is focused on successful analysis of input image followed by desired reaction. During the course are discussed practical applications of the mostly used computer vision algorithms in C#, C++ and also in MATLAB with Image Processing Toolbox.
Syllabus
  • 1. Image pre-processing. Practical implementation of the following algorithms:
    a. conversion color 24bit RGB image into 8bit grayscale (C#), different approaches
    b. convolution filters demos, e.g. edge detection, edge enhancing, blur, sharpening, relief and other filters
    2. Segmentation and feature recognition. Practical implementation:
    a. Quadtree decomposition (C#)
    b. Global thresholding (C#)
    c. Line finding (C#)
    3. Reverse stereoprojection, camera model, two cameras case, absolute and relative calibration and reconstruction
    4. Analysis of time-variant images by Discrete Kalman Filter
    5. Objects tracking in images from moving camera
    6. Motion detection, image substraction methods
    7. Environment model estimation
    8. Optical flow. Practical implementation of the following algorithms:
    a. Lucas-Kanade algorithm to motion detection (MATLAB)
    9. Interest point detection, SURF/SIFT method comparison (C++)
