Study Objective:

Pattern recognition is the foundation of artificial intelligence, machine perception, computer graphics and many other related research areas, such as data mining, hypermedia, etc. The course objective is to convey advance knowledge from pattern recognition with emphasis on the pattern recognition based on multidimensional statistical models and applications mostly in image processing.
