Course Description:

This course covers advanced techniques and algorithms used in real-time 3D computer vision and image processing, from medical imaging to intelligent autonomous UAV/robot vision. The goal of computer vision/machine vision/robot vision/drone vision is to recognise objects and their motion by creating a model of the real world from images. Object recognition and tracking needs to allow for large variations in appearance caused by changes in viewing position, illumination, occlusion and object shape. This course encompasses the theory and practical applications of computer vision including image processing (useful in early stages of computer vision, usually to enhance particular information and suppress noise) and visual cognition (computational models of human vision) – from medical imaging to intelligent autonomous UAV/robot vision. The objective of this course is to present an insight into the world of computer vision that goes beyond image processing algorithms.
