Course Descrption:
This course introduces fundamentals of image and video processing, including color image capture and representation; image/video compression; video networking; selected advanced image/video processing and communication techniques. Students will learn to implement selected algorithms in Python (Matlab). A term project will be required. Relevant publications will be provided as reference. Through this course, students would have to gain the classical knowledge and cutting-edge techniques.
