Anotace:

The lectures provide an introduction into the concepts of uncertain geometric reasoning using projective entities with applications in Computer Vision. They cover aspects such as the representation of uncertain projective entities, the uncertainty propagation, performing statistical testing of geometric relations and optimal estimation of geometric entities and transformations.

Five lectures per 90 minutes will be given during a single week of 21-25. March 2011. Software, short exercises parallel to the lectures and a project will be provided. The lectures will be given by a leading expert in the field, Prof. Wolfgang Förstner, University of Bonn, Germany.
