Introduction 

This course is an introduction to vision science and digital imaging technologies, specifically dealing with various aspects of Color Vision. The course is intended for MSc and PhD students and advanced undergraduate students (with permission). Course requirement is a background in Image Processing and Mathematics (linear algebra).

The course deals with issues and problems relating to imaging technologies, i.e. display, acquisition, transmission, printing and storing of images. With the nature of visual data in mind, an emphasis is put on issues relating to color. The first part of the course will include: Background on Color Vision, Color perception and Color representation. The latter part of the course will describe the advanced technologies in imaging science and discuss specific issues associated with these technologies. Topics may include: Printers and displays, Scanners and digital cameras, Image compression and Image quality measures. As part of the course, guest lectures will be given by representatives of the Imaging Industries.


Grading

Homework assignments will be part of the final grade.
A final Project will conclude the course. Guest lectures are compulsory and will affect the final grade.
