Abstract
The course is devoted to the usage of computer vision libraries like OpenCV in 2d image processing. The course includes sections of image filtering and thresholding, edge/corner/interest point detection, local and global descriptors, video tracking.
Learning Objectives
- Learning the main algorithms of traditional image processing.
- Thorough understanding of benefits and limitations of traditional image processing.
Expected Learning Outcomes
- Apply image binarization techniques.
- Apply local filters for image smoothing.
- Apply object detection, image retrieval and/or image segmentation in practice.
- Apply point-wise operations for image contrast enhancements.
- Create panoramas with image stitching.
- Detect objects with the Viola-Jones method.
- Display video from web-camera and video files.
- Distinguish image color models.
- Distinguish the main tasks of computer vision and 2d image processing.
- Find correspondent parts in different images.
- Perform denoising in binary images with mathematical morphology.
- Perform image processing operations for video frames.
- Process grayscale and color images.
- Segment objects in binary images.
- Set-up environment (OpenCV library) for C++/Python development on Windows and Linux/MacOS.
- Solve content-based image retrieval tasks.
- Track object movements in videos.
- Use FFT (Fast Fourier transform) for image filtering.
