Main field of study with advanced study

Computer Science and Engineering, Second cycle, has second-cycle course/s as entry requirements. (A1F)

Entry requirements

Bachelor of Science degree (or equivalent) in an engineering subject or in computer science. Courses in computer science, computer engineering or electrical engineering of at least 90 credits, including thesis. Courses in mathematics of at least 30 credits or courses including calculus, linear algebra and transform methods. The course Image analysis 7,5 credits. English 6.

Placement in the Academic System

The course is included as an elective course in the Master's Programme in Embedded and Intelligent Systems 120 credits, the Master's Programme in Information Technology 120 credits and as elective course in the Programme Computer Science and Engineering, 300 credits. The course is also offered as a freestanding course.

Objectives

The student shall acquire knowledge and skills for applications of multidimensional computer vision, primarily image sequences of space taken in time and/or from different views. A further objective is to introduce the current research applications and that the student acquires a deeper understanding of the subject.


Following successful completion of the course the student should be able to:


Knowledge and understanding

  • describe motion by means of images
  • describe geometry of 3D objects by images


Skills and ability

  • map motion in 3D and typical computer vision problems, and experiment with solutions
  • map geometry of 3D objects and typical computer vision problems, and experiment with solutions


Judgement and approach

  • analyze and evaluate methods and solutions in applications of computer vision

Content

The following elements are included in the course: motion of lines and points, motion tensor and direction, 3D geometry and perspective camera, 3D reconstruction by stereo.
