About the course
Course content
In this course we will discuss state of the art video analysis for video understanding and its applications in different domains; e.g. video surveillance and video guided surgery. Actual topics may include but are not limited to the following topics:
- Video indexing, summarization, and retrieval.
- Video-based object classification.
- Audio and video semantic analysis.
- Object detection and tracking.
- Video processing in the compressed domain.
- Multi-camera systems and multi-camera data fusion and processing.
- Objective video quality evaluation.
- 3D and multi-view video compression.
- Deep learning for medical image processing
- Deep learning for video surveillance
Learning outcome
Having completed the course, the students will - Possess advanced knowledge within the area of intelligent video technology, with emphasis on representing, analyzing, compressing and processing video. - Possess specialized insight and good understanding of the research frontier in selected topics of video analysis especially of relevance to video surveillance, video-based navigation and video guided surgery applications.
Skills and general competence: - Be able to use relevant and suitable methods when carrying out further research and development activities in the area of video analysis and processing - Be able to critically review relevant literature when solving the assigned problem or topic. - Be able to give a presentation and demonstrate their findings.
Learning methods and activities
-E-learning and Seminars:
Additional information: -Lectures by the course instructors and guest lectures by invited experts. Student presentations on selected topics.
E-learning material will be available for this course: PDF of the lectures and student presentations, and possibly audio/video recordings of the lectures will be provided. These E-lectures material will be available on an e-Learning platform (Blackboard). Which will also be used for discussions with the teachers and between the students.
Compulsory requirements: -Oral presentations. Each student needs to study one topic, make a short introductory presentation (5min) about it and later give a deeper presentation (20-30min) and write a report about the work done and its outcomes.
Further on evaluation
Re-sit: One re-sit for the Oral re-examination may be offered for valid reasons only, needs to have given the presentation/implementation and report accepted to be allowed for the re-sit.
Forms of assessment: - 20-30 min Oral Exam, individually (counts 100%, evaluated by lecturers and external reviewer) / video conference via Skype for distance students may be arranged - Topic report (is a pre-requisit to take the exam and is evaluated by lecturers as pass/fail). - Each part must be individually approved of.
