Course Description:

This course presents an introduction to the techniques and algorithms of digital image processing. Class lectures will closely track outline of the the course textbook. Lectures will follow the textbook closely.

Grading: Term poject 40%, HWs worth 25%, two tests worth 15% each, class participation and attendance is worth 5%.

HWs: Three HWs on (a) enhancement, (b) segmentation, and (c) interpretation will be assigned to divide your project into three phases. Each HW requires a 2000 word report and a brief in-class presentation. Use APA report style, see Plonsky's online APA guide.
Project: Acceptables projects that are selected by students will be discussed in class. Generally, term project will implement covered DIP techniques in the textbook. HWs are intended to guide and complement your project. Visit Dr. Nick Efford's DIP text and Java code for a possible starting point. Project teams of up to two students are allowed but not required.

What this course is NOT: a toolkit training class.
