Level A1F
Identifier EEA308
Learning outcomes After completion of the course the student shall be able to
1. identify and explain fundamental concepts, methods and techniques in the field of
computerized image processing, image analysis, computer vision, as well as human vision
2. identify and analyze complex problem settings related to computer vision & image
analysis
3. conceptually design a solution by proposing adequate methods for acquisition, analysis
and classification of images in a chosen application
4. implement an image analysis/computer vision system based on own design and to
systematically evaluate it according to relevant assessment criteria
5. analyze and present in writing the process of identifying and solving a technical problem
in image analysis/computer vision, as well as to critically discuss results and conclusions
based on own systematic evaluations.
Course content Overview of goals, methods and limitations of computerized image analysis and computer
vision
Introduction to digital imaging modalities, image formation process and digital image
representation
Biological vision and the human visual perception
Fundamental concepts and methods in image analysis: signal theory, filtering, image
enhancement, image reconstruction, morphological operations, and image segmentation
Fundamental concepts in and methods in computer vision: multi-level representations, higher
level feature detection and classification (edges, corners, and others) and object recognition

The University of Gävle does not accept cheating in any form. Plagiarism is a form of cheating, which means that you imitate or copy someone else's work, such as a
text, an image or a table, and present the material as your own. The University of Gävle uses anti-plagiarism systems to prevent and detect fraud in connection with
written assignments.
Stereo and multiview computer vision
Image registration and projective transforms.
Teaching Teaching comprises lectures, laboratory exercises, and assignments. For the assignments
emphasis is put on the student´s ability to experimentally evaluate image analysis/computer
vision for a chosen problem area and to critically discuss own findings. Lectures are not
mandatory for the students.
Prerequisites Statistical Signal Processing 7.5 cr and Algorithms and Data structures 7.5 cr or equivalent.
Grade A, B, C, D, E, Fx, F
Other regulations Criteria for final grade will be given at the beginning of the course.
Sustainable environment A minor part of the course content deals with sustainable development.
