16-720 Computer Vision

Units: 12.0 Department: Robotics Prerequisites: 15-385 Related URLs: http://www.ri.cmu.edu/ This course deals with the science and engineering of computer vision, that is, the analysis of patterns in visual images of the world with the goal of reconstructing and understanding the objects and processes in the world that are producing them. The emphasis is on physical, mathematical, and information processing aspects of vision. Topics covered include image formation and representation, camera geometry and calibration, multi-scale analysis, segmentation, contour and region analysis, energy-based techniques, reconstruction of based on stereo, shading and motion, 3-D surface representation and projection, and analysis and recognition of objects and scenes using statistical and model-based techniques. The material is based on a recent graduate-level textbook augmented with research papers, as appropriate. The course involves considerable Matlab programming exercises.
