(Most individual lectures will be given by specialists.)
3 units
Win. T, Th: 3:15 - 4:30 pm
Room MSOB-275
This course provides an overview of all aspects of digital image
formation, processing, storage, retrieval, manipulation and transformation. It
emphasizes the informational aspects of an image, the additional value acquired
by an image as it is processed, and the information value of an image in various
application contexts.
Audience: Medical and informatics students, engineering and
computer
science students. The course is appropriate as an introductory course for those
who want an overview of image informatics. It is also suitable as a first course
for those looking for a research interest in image informatics. The course
requires a college-level physics course as pre-requisite.
