Learning outcomes
On successful completion of this module students should be able to:
express a consolidated and extended understanding and knowledge of various image processing topics and techniques: colour space, image formation, image compression, image enhancement, image features, texture, and classification.
compare, critically evaluate and discuss alternative techniques.
describe a method and design experiments to evaluate techniques.
Aims
The module is intended to introduce basic image processing topics and techniques. The manipulation of image data can be seen as fundamental to a number of advanced computer vision, visualization, and game aspects. In addition, the development of digital imaging in main-stream life makes this unit stands on its own as well.
Brief description
The module will form a generic introduction to image processing. It will start with the image formation and compression process. Subsequently several image filtering techniques will be discussed in order to enhance images. The use of these techniques with regard to image features, texture, and classification will be covered. It will make clear links between programming and image processing. In the workshops, how to do experimental study of some selected image processing topics from data collection, algorithm development and analysis, programming and implementation, result analysis, and how to write a scientific paper will be discussed.
