This course provides a comprehensive introduction to computer vision. Major topics include image processing, detection and recognition, geometry-based and physics-based vision and video analysis. Students will learn basic concepts of computer vision as well as hands on experience to solve real-life vision problems.

To get started with the class you need to do just three things:

1. Sign up for the course Piazza.
2. Sign up for an account on this webpage. (The signup code is on Canvas.)
3. Carefully read through the Course Info.
