Inhalt:

The class is concerned with the digital processing of visual information by means of computer vision, computer graphics and image processing. It covers the following three interlocking topic complexes:

Image processing:
- mathematical basics of image representations,
- noise models and noise suppression (including morphological, bilat-eral, and non-local filters),
- selected topics from discrete image processing on image regions (e.g. photo montage with graph cuts, texture synthesis and space-time video completion),

Measuring / displaying light:
- selected topics from simple optics (esp. thin lenses and their interac-tions with light) ,
- geometric camera models and calibration, typical optical distortions and means to counter them,
- radiometric camera calibration and HDR imaging,
- measuring and displaying colorplenoptic imaging / integral photography techniques, light field rendering and light field displays,
- passive stereo,

Combined camera / illumination systems:
- camera
-illumination systems and photometric stereo,
- active stereo and projector-camera systems,
- the light transport matrix, its measurement and applications.
Throughout, the class equally covers both acquisition (camera) and dis-plays systems.
