Course/Module description:
Computer vision seeks to interpret the visual world in ways that replicate the astonishing capabilities of human perception. The input/output process can be succinctly described as inferring the high-level properties of the scene such as location and identities of objects, the surfaces that make the scene, the motion of the observer and other objects and the actions of the various objects (like people, animals). The input is merely a video, i.e., a collection of 2D images of the scene. Humans can readily infer a great deal of those properties from a single image. The goal of computer vision is to be able to do the same but by a computer algorithm.
The course will present the fundamental computational models behind scene interpretation, motion understanding and object recognition. We will focus on specific problems which have witnessed remarkable success including object recognition (faces, people), 3D reconstruction, segmentation and scene categorization. The student will be exposed to tools from statistical learning and image processing while obtaining an understanding of key leading techniques for the main problems of computer vision: recognition, reconstruction and segmentation.
