This course is intended to provide insights into advanced topics in image processing. The topics discussed include but are not limited to: multi-scale and probabilistic image respresentation and analysis, image restoration, invariant image representation, image reconstruction, image fusion, otical flow, image segmentation, and image registration. Recent research papers and review papers from the field will be sued as complimentary material to weekly lectures.

u/jzxwww: “… Somehow, all the 600+ graduate courses aligned with my research, like Pattern Recognition(SYDE675) and Image Processing(SYDE671), have not been offered for two consecutive terms. I have no idea if they will be offered again. The only course that looks like a substitute is CS684. …”

Courses related to LiDAR or Photogrammetry? 7 points, 5 comments
“Are there courses related to LiDAR, SLAM, or Photogrammetry? Interested in knowing but what I know so far is prob ECE 495, MTE 544, STAT 443 (Kalman Filtering?), have no clue for Photogrammetry”
u/rrrishabhhh: “Hey I'm a PhD student working with photogrammetry, look into image processing courses, they usually cover SfM/PO photogrammetry in some capacity. Specifically, SYDE 671, CIVE 497 (Smart Structures, https://github.com/chulminy/CIVE497-CIVE700)”
