VISUAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS

CSE3VIS

2015

Credit points: 15

Subject outline

This subject covers an overview of visual information access, image representation, feature extraction, image recognition and understanding, and content-based image retrieval techniques.Design issues on facial image recognition and content-based image retrieval systems for image database management will be addressed, which contain eigenface technology, image feature extraction, indexing, similarity measure, lower-bounding lemma and performance evaluation. Practice on facial image recognition (FIR) will be offered in Labs.
