Most recent update: 13 May 2005.
New module for 2005/06.
| The module provides an introduction to computer vision, intended for students with some prior background in AI. Appropriate computational models, techniques and algorithms will be introduced, so that students can both understand the relevant literature and construct simple sofware systems. |
The aims of this module are to:
| On successful completion of this module, the student should be able to: | Assessed by: | |
