Computer Vision is an important field of Artificial Intelligence concerned with questions such as "how to extract information from image or video, and how to build a machine to see". Recent explosive growth of digital imaging technology, advanced computing, and deep learning makes the problems of automated image interpretation even more exciting and much more relevant than ever.

This course introduces students to fundamental problems in image processing and computer vision, as well as their state-of-the-art solutions. Topics covered in detail include: image formation, image filtering, camera geometry, thresholding and image segmentation, edge, point and feature detection, geometric frameworks for vision, single view and two views geometry; 3D visual reconstruction, camera calibration; stereo vision, image classification and object recognition, deep learning and neural networks for computer vision etc. The course features extensive practical components including computer labs and Term Research projects that provide students with the opportunity to practice and refine their skills in image processing and computer vision.

Learning Outcomes

Upon successful completion, students will have the knowledge and skills to:

  1. Understand the foundations of modern computer vision theory, problem and state of the art solutions. 
  2. Implement and test some fundamental computer vision algorithms e.g. image filtering, restoration, image segmentation, camera calibration.
  3. Analyse and evaluate critically the building and integration of computer vision algorithms and systems.
  4. Design and demonstrate a working computer vision system through  team research project, and project report, presentation. 
  5. Continue to critically review and assess scientific literature and apply the knowledge and skills gained from the course in developing innovative applications.
