| General | Schedule | Assignments | Final Project |
| Description: | This course is an introduction to the concepts of 2D and 3D computer vision. Topics include: low-level image processing methods such as filtering and edge detection; segmentation and clustering; optical flow and tracking; shape reconstruction from stereo, motion, texture, and shading; classification and recognition. Throughout the course, we also look at aspects of human vision and perception that guide and inspire computer vision techniques. |
| Prerequisites: | Prerequisites for the course are COS 217 and COS 226. The course will require programming (in MATLAB and/or C/C++), as well as some background in data structures and linear algebra. Experience with signal processing, statistics, and/or computer graphics is useful but not necessary. |
| Coursework: | The grade will be based on five assignments (65%), a final project (30%), and class participation (5%). |
