AIMS AND CONTENT

LEARNING OUTCOMES

The aim of this course is to provide students with skills in the analysis of images and digital video sequences. In a first part they will understand the ways in which information can be extracted from images: automatic detection of characteristic elements, shape and color descriptions. This information will then be used to compare different images based on common elements (these skills will allow the student to automatically group perceptually similar images or to estimate from images the depth of a scene). Finally, algorithms for motion identification and analysis will be designed (possible applications of these techniques involve the representation and understanding of human motion).

AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES

Provide basic knowledge in the following topics:

  • methods and technologies for image and video processing
  • algorithms for the representation and understanding of the content of an image, identification of points of interest, images similarity estimation
  • image analysis, expressivity and realism
  • video analysis and gesture expressivity

TEACHING METHODS

Mixed modality: frontal lessons, guided workshops, readings, study case studies
