Course description
This course develops an understanding of how to carry out different image processing tasks.

Learning outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
  • Understand the process and techniques used to capture, enhance, restore digital images
  • Understand o the process and techniques used to encode and compress digital images
  • Know how to select an appropriate processing method for a given image processing problem
  • Explain how video sampling and rate conversion are carried out.
The learning activities include the following.
  • Attend lectures where syllabus material will be presented and explained, and the subject will be illustrated with demonstrations and examples; 
  • Complete tutorial questions and lab projects designed to give further practice in the application of theory and to give feedback on student progress and understanding; 
  • Complete written lab report consisting of numerical and other problems requiring an integrated understanding of the subject matter; and 
  • Survey and summarise the current literature to gain a sense of the current state of the art in the subject domain
  • Carry out private study, work through materials as presented in classes and in tutorial/lab session(s), and gain practice at solving conceptual and numerical problems.
Workload
Two-hour lecture and two-hour tutorial (or laboratory) (requiring advance preparation),
A minimum of 2-3 hours of personal study per one hour of contact time in order to satisfy the reading and assignment expectations.
You will need to allocate up to 5 hours per week in some weeks, for use of a computer, including time for  group work/discussions,

Assessment tasks
  • Final examination – assessment of theoretical knowledge and application 
  • Assignments – literature review and summary of a specialised topic 
  • Practical (lab exercises) – learning will be enhanced with lab exercises that encourage exploration of the topic. Laboratory reports are due one or two weeks after completion of the scheduled laboratory session.
