Comments/contents:
The field of Computer vision deals with developing algorithms that interpret and modify images.
This lecture requires some pre-knowledge in image processing (basics of histograms, digital filters, etc.), ideally obtained in of the Bachelor lecture "Einführung in die Bildverarbeitung" (introduction to image processing) at our department, but also other image processing courses should provide the required knowledge.
This lecture will put a stronger focus on mid- and high level methods of computer vision such as segmentation and classification.
If you do not have pre-knowledge in IP and still would like to attend the lecture, we provide content for self-study. You should plan for 2-3 weeks of self-study before the semester starts. Login to our Moodle page for more information about which pre-knowledge is necessary and how to obtain it:
Course name: Computer Vision 1 - WiSe 2023/2024
enrollment key: CV1-2324
(if the course is not available yet, try again in a few days)
In particular, the lecture will cover the following topics:
- Machine-learning-based computer vision
- advanced topics of digital filters
- line and circle detection (Hough transform)
- segmentation
- features and interest points, feature-based object recognition
- classification of objects and scenes
- deep learning for computer vision
Learning objectives:
Knowledge of computer vision methods with a focus on mid and high level methods.
Didactic concept:
The course will be held in an inverted classroom model: lecture videos are provided via Moodle, regular meetings deepen the knowledge and provide the possibility for questions and discussions.
The exercises are held in presence.
