CODE 104782 ACADEMIC YEAR 2023/2024 CREDITS 5 cfu anno 2 INTERNET AND MULTIMEDIA ENGINEERING 10378 (LM-27) - GENOVA SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINARY SECTOR ING-INF/03 LANGUAGE English TEACHING LOCATION GENOVA SEMESTER 1° Semester MODULES Questo insegnamento è un modulo di: IMAGE PROCESSING AND REMOTE SENSING TEACHING MATERIALS AULAWEB AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES In this course the basic techniques of digital signal and image processing are presented and their application to signals and images from real domains are discussed: • Digital Image Representation and Color Spaces • Image Filtering (linear and non-linear) • Edge Detection • Image Segmentation • Texture Analysis • Mathematical Morphology • Moments and Hough Transform • Adaptive Processing, Multiscale, Data Fusion AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The course provides an introduction to digital image processing techniques. Analysis of digital images has several important applications e.g. remote sensing, biomedical imaging, telecommunications, character recognition, advertising photography, historical objects analysis. Nowadays, the available computational power allows almost everyone to leverage on high-performance algorithm for image processing. In the first part, digital images will be introduced. Several color spaces are described and common techniques to change from one to another are provided. Basic methods are presented, e.g. contrast enhancement, thresholding, histogram analysis, noise reduction, underlining the use of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT). Classical techniques for edge detection, segmentation, mathematical morphology analysis, texture analysis are topics of the course. During practical lessons, software for image processing such as GIMP, ImageJ, MatLab and libraries such as come OpenCV are used. TEACHING METHODS Combination of classical lessons and laboratory exercises. SYLLABUS/CONTENT Digital Image Representation Color Spaces Image Filtering (linear and non-linear) Edge detection Image Segmentation Mathematical morphology Moments and Hough Transform Texture analysis Introduction to Deep Learning for Digital Image Processing/Regression/Recognition - Basic concepts - Convolutional Networks - application examples.
