Campus MCS
Programs PG
Session Fall Semester 2016
Course Title Digital Image Processing
Course Code SE -850
Credit Hours 3+0
Pre-Requisutes MATH 222 Linear Algebra MATH 361 Probability & Statistics
Course Objectives The goal of the course is to provide a fundamental background on Digital Image Processing. After the completion of this course the student will have understood the basic concepts behind the processing of digital images as well as used various techniques of filtering/processing images. The course serves as the basis for more advance topics in Computer Vision, such as Object Recognition, Scene Interpretation, among others.
