ADVANCED DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING

ECE 738

Course Description

Deterministic and stochastic spatio-temporal image models, transform domain processing, Markov random fields and anisotropic diffusion; MAP parameter estimation, ill-posed inverse problems, robust statistics and non-linear digital filtering in image processing. Applications to image restoration, motion estimation, (video) image compression (MPEG, JPEG) and tomography. Knowledge of image processing [such asE C E/COMP SCI 533] strongly encouraged.
