About the Course

In this class you will learn the basic principles and tools used to process images and videos, and how to apply them in solving practical problems of commercial and scientific interests. Digital images and videos are everywhere these days – in thousands of scientific (e.g., astronomical, bio-medical), consumer, industrial, and artistic applications. Moreover they come in a wide range of the electromagnetic spectrum - from visible light and infrared to gamma rays and beyond. The ability to process image and video signals is therefore an incredibly important skill to master for engineering/science students, software developers, and practicing scientists. Digital image and video processing continues to enable the multimedia technology revolution we are experiencing today. Some important examples of image and video processing include the removal of degradations images suffer during acquisition (e.g., removing blur from a picture of a fast moving car), and the compression and transmission of images and videos (if you watch videos online, or share photos via a social media website, you use this everyday!), for economical storage and efficient transmission. This course will cover the fundamentals of image and video processing. We will provide a mathematical framework to describe and analyze images and videos as two- and three-dimensional signals in the spatial, spatio-temporal, and frequency domains. In this class not only will you learn the theory behind fundamental processing tasks including image/video enhancement, recovery, and compression - but you will also learn how to perform these key processing tasks in practice using state-of-the-art techniques and tools. We will introduce and use a wide variety of such tools – from optimization toolboxes to statistical techniques. Emphasis on the special role sparsity plays in modern image and video processing will also be given. In all cases, example images and videos pertaining to specific application domains will be utilized....

The course starts off with a good basis for the material (signals, freq. domain etc.), however sometime during week 6, the instructor starts moving swiftly through lots algorithms/methods with complex math, without going into depth, which makes it hard to follow. This is would be fine if it weren't for the exercises, which are very easy, and barely require any deep dive.

So therefore I cannot say that after taking this course, i gained a good familiarity with the methods taught.

The content of the course mainly focuses on the theoretical side of image processing rather than practical. Even though practical quizzes were easy and not challenging, other grading tasks required too much memorization. On the other hand, the instructor explains the topics very well and makes it easy to understand complicated points.

La parte teórica es amplia, sin embargo, siento que hacen falta ejemplos prácticos (desarrollo de algoritmos en Matlab) y una mayor explicación de cómo pasar/plasmar lo visto en las diapositivas a la computadora; a mi parecer es mucha charla en las diapositivas y si hace falta ver algo mas de acción en la computadora.

this course is almost theoretical and have small projects in quizzes.

I was hoping that the course has more projects but it hasn't

But I got a good vision about image and video processing that will help me in next courses surely.

Well it was very very mathematical, the material just starts from basics and boost up to advance in no time, good if someone want to have a background knowledge of image processing.

A lot of theory, almost too much, but for practical examples with Matlab no explanations, just a little box where to put the result, and if your result is wrong, no explanation...
