Can we make machines look, understand and interpret the world around them? Can we make cars that can autonomously navigate in the world, robots that can recognize and grasp objects and, ultimately, recognize humans and communicate with them? How do search engines index and retrieve billions of images? This course will provide the knowledge and skills that are fundamental to core vision tasks of one of the fastest growing fields in academia and industry: visual computing. Topics include introduction to fundamental problems of computer vision, mathematical models and computational methodologies for their solution, implementation of real-life applications and experimentation with various techniques in the field of scene analysis and understanding.
