PX5025: IMAGE ANALYSIS (2023-2024)

Last modified: 23 Jul 2024 10:43


Course Overview

Nowadays a large volume of data is stored in form of images. This course introduces the tools needed to analyse images and extract information from them, including aspects of image enhancement, filtering, segmentation, morphological analysis and image classification based on convolutional neural networks.

No

Course Description

The main focus of the course is to introduce key concepts of image analysis. Emphasis will be put on the concepts underlying the algorithms to analyse images, including image enhancement, filtering (spatial and frequency domain), segmentation, morphological transformations, colour image analysis and convolutional neural networks for automatic classification of images. During the lectures, the main concepts and ideas will be explained, and during the practical sessions, we will discuss how to implement the algorithms to apply them to images.  This course will therefore provide students with the fundamentals of how to process and extract information from images.


Details, including assessments, may be subject to change until 30 August 2024 for 1st term courses and 20 December 2024 for 2nd term courses.
