Aims and Objectives
The aim of the course is to provide both fundamental understanding and practical knowledge of sophisticated image analysis techniques for independently applying research and development in this field. To this end, theoretical foundations will be encouraged by a strong practical focus with various appropriate examples in the lecture and laboratory. At the end of the course the student should be able to build up, run and evaluate an automatic image analysis system, e.g. for object detection, using Matlab. Beside the regular practical exercises each student will therefore be part of a small project group that develops and presents an image analysis system for a given task.
