IP01: MATLAB for Image Processing

This course shows how to perform various image processing techniques using the Image Processing Toolbox. The course explores the different types of image representations, how to enhance image characteristics, image filtering, and how to reduce the effects of noise and blurring in an image. It also introduces different methods used to extract features and objects within an image, image registration, and a few techniques for reconstructing images/objects.

Case Studies	Objective: This section is intended for investigation and problem solving using a set of case studies. This section discusses the following cases: Motion detection Text recognition Finding particles Bouncing ball Ball tracking Microarray analysis Pattern matching

Prerequisites

MATLAB Fundamentals (ML01) or equivalent experience using MATLAB. The MATLAB for Signal Processing course (SG01) and a basic knowledge of image processing concepts are strongly recommended.

Class Times: TBD

Please Note: A 1 hour test session will be scheduled on the first day of class. This test session will cover viewing and audio troubleshooting as well as software installation (content will be presented during the remaining days). It is highly recommended that you attend this session to ensure a successful start to the class.
