Prerequisites

You are highly recommended to refresh your knowledge on probability and statistics as of basic digital image processing prior to this class.

Practical work can be done in a language of your choice. We have a preference for Matlab or Python.  Futhermore, we suggest that you refresh your programming and image handling skills.
