Prerequisites: CEG-724

Textbook:

Computer Vision: A Modern Approach
by Forsyth and Ponce
Prentice-Hall 2003

Additional Reading: To be handed out in class.

Purpose of Course:

This course is a continuation of CEG-724 Computer Vision I. In this course the focus will be on high-level vision processes.

Contents:

  1. Stereo depth perception (ch11)
  2. Structure from motion (ch12)
  3. Object tracking (ch17)
  4. Model-based vision (ch18)
  5. Shape from shading and photometric stereo (ch05)
  6. Range data analysis (ch21)
  7. Smooth surfaces and their outlines (ch19)
  8. Aspect graphs (ch20)
  9. Recognition by finding patterns (ch22)
  10. Matching by relations (ch23)
  11. Application: Creation of digital image libraries (ch25)

Learning Goals:

In this course we will learn computer algorithms that interpret images. Some of the techniques will be practiced through computer implementation.

Projects and Exams:

There will be three programming assignments, three quizez, a final report, and a presentation. A typical programming assignment will require about 20 hours of study and programming. Final report and presentation will also require about 20 hours of study and preparation. Each student will be assigned a paper to read, prepare a 5-page report, present the paper in class.

Grading Policy:

Programming assignments will worth 40%, the presentation and report will worth 20%, and the quizes will worth 40% of the overall grade. Grades will be assigned as follows. A: [91..100], B: [81..90], C: [71..80], D: [61..70], F: [0..60].
