Objective:
We will learn basic techniques for image and video
processing that make possible to retrieve information from videos (video
mining). These techniques will allow us to
identify
specified events in videos and to retrieve similar videos from video databases.
We
will consider applications that include video surveillance systems and video
databases.
Prerequisites:
The course will be self-contained and all necessary concepts will be introduced.
CIS 511 Programming Techniques. Good programming skills, in particular in MATLAB.
