Abstract

The course is devoted to the usage of computer vision libraries like OpenCV in 2d image processing. The course includes sections of image filtering and thresholding, edge/corner/interest point detection, local and global descriptors, video tracking.
Learning Objectives

Learning Objectives

  • Learning the main algorithms of traditional image processing.
  • Thorough understanding of benefits and limitations of traditional image processing.
