Course content
Half of the course is concerned with image syntesis (computer graphics) and half of the course is on image analysis (image processing). Graphics: graphical primitives, rasterization, anti-aliasing, clipping, geometric transformations, viewing transformations, hierarchical scene modelling, culling and hidden surface elimination, colour representation, illumination models and algorithms. OpenGL labs based on C/C++ or Rust. Image processing: introduction to and examples of image processing and simple image analysis applications. Intro to deep learning based image interpretation and understanding (fully-connected neural networks and CNNs). Filtering and image enhancement in both the spatial domain as well as in the frequency / Fourier domain. Various image segmentation methods and mathematical morphology. Labs with assignments and Python (alternatively MATLAB). For more information see also: https://www.idi.ntnu.no/grupper/vis/teaching/ as well as Blackboard.
Learning outcome
Knowledge: The candidate will acquire knowledge of basic image synthesis and image analysis principles and algorithms. Skills: The candidate will acquire skills in graphics and image processing programming with commonly used tools. General competence: The candidate will gain competence in realising the potential of basic graphics and image processing techniques, an overview of visual computing, the ability to construct sizeable visual computing applications as well as to absorb further visual computing knowledge.
Learning methods and activities
Lectures and exercises. The lectures will be in English. The exam will be in English.
Further on evaluation
The course involves up to 6 assignments in graphics and image processing, that jointly count for 40% of the grade. A written examination makes up the other 60%. The final result is A-F.
If there is a re-sit examination, the examination form may change from written to oral.
If a student decides to retake the course for grade improvement or if the student failed the course, then they have to redo both parts of the course.
Recommended previous knowledge
