Course Objective: This course is concerned with the mathematical study of image processing. Its two objectives are

  • to introduce basic concepts and engineering approaches applicable to digital image processing and develop a further study foundation.

  • to provide some mathematical techniques for studying several fundamental questions in image processing, such as how to restore a degraded image and how to segment it into meaningful regions.

 

General Information: This course will cover the following topics

  • Basic concepts of digital image processing

  • Intensity transformations and spatial filtering

  • Variational methods for image denoising

  • Variational methods for image deblurring

  • Multi-focus image fusion and guided filter

  • Image dehazing: atmospheric scattering model and dark channel prior

  • Variational methods for image contrast enhancement

  • Image inpainting: variational methods and sparse representation

  • Variational image segmentation: Mumford-Shah and Chan-Vese models

  • Principal component pursuit problems

Assignments: will be assigned approximately every two weeks and announced at ee-class. The students are encouraged to discuss homework with other classmates. Direct copying is absolutely not allowed.
