Recognition and Image Processing

The course is a substitute for:

Pattern Recognition (X33RZO)

Lecturer:

Tutor:

Supervisor:

Department of Cybernetics

Synopsis:

Pattern recognition plays a decisive role in interpretation and processing of medical data, that is why this topic will be given the appropriate attention. The second part of the course will cover the basic techniques of digital image processing, namely those most frequently applied in medicine. The excercises will have the form of laboratory projects. Students will be asked to treat a complex problem from the biomedical domain, which cannot be solved without upper mentioned special knowledge. In this way the student will be taught the correct methodology to be used when solving a task in collaborative team approach.
