    Study Notes

    Computer Vision Module 1

    • Computer vision is about recreating the three-dimensional structure of the world from images.
    • Humans perceive 3D easily, but computers find it difficult.
    • Computer vision techniques use mathematical models and machine learning to infer properties from images (e.g., shape and appearance.)
    • Using large sets of partially overlapping photographs, 3D models can be created.
    • These advances are used in applications like optical character recognition, mechanical inspection, retail, warehousing logistics, and medical imaging.
    • Self-driving cars and drone-based photogrammetry are also enabled by computer vision.
    • Computer vision is an inverse problem; finding the solution is difficult.

    Optical Illusions and Visual Perception

    • Illusions are used to test visual principles such as brightness constancy.
    • The visual system attempts to compensate for changes in lighting.
    • Visual perception is complex.
    • There is no easy solution to understanding the principles of visual perception.
