,Module 0 – Introduction
Some cool applications of the VCA group:
- Create a 3D model of complex spaces, with multiple levels and hallways.
- Create 3D models of extremely large spaces such as a cathedral.
- Person / object re-identification with multiple cameras so the trajectory can be estimated.
- Synthesizing traffic signs from street-view imagery, by generating realistic examples and
retrain detectors.
- Accurate localization by image matching (take a picture somewhere, compare it with a
database of city pictures, and match features to an exact location).
A computer receives an image as a large matrix of (RGB) values. The goal of computer
vision is to make the computer understand what can be seen in these values. Which set of
values correspond to a certain object or activity, and from which position did the camera
capture that environment.
Some computer vision application examples:
- Optical character recognition (OCR), which converts scanned docs to text. Think of the
scanning option in Google translate.
- Object detection. Detect faces, humans, cars or any other object of interest in an image.
- Activity detection and classification. Detect when fights, burglary or other abnormal
behavior occurs in surveillance images.
- Guiding doctors in diagnosis, therapy and surgery. For example a network that ‘reads’ an
image of a melanoma and outputs whether it is malignant (bad) or benign (not so bad).
- Allow robots to see and interpret its surroundings.
- Enable autonomous driving, by detecting driving lanes, traffic signs, other vehicles etc.
- Special effects: motion capture. (use a human face to capture facial motions and translate
these to an animal’s face)
- 3D modeling of environment. For example the 3d option in Google Maps.

,Module 1 – Feature Extraction and Matching
Color spaces
The most common color system is the RGB system (red-green-blue), however, other
systems exist as well.
HSV – Hue, Saturation, Value (also called intensity)
CMYK – Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key (which is black)
YUV – Luma (brightness), and Chrominance (color)
These different color spaces can be converted from and to each other. For example RGB to
HSV (which might be the most used conversion of them all):
Hue is a value between 0 and 360, so if the equation returns greater than 360, or smaller
than 0, add or subtract 360 until it is within the correct range.
Feature points
Feature points are used for
image alignment (think of
panorama images), 3D
reconstruction, motion
tracking, object recognition,
image matching and retrieval,
robot navigation and more.
, Feature points, feature descriptors, or just features are small parts of information about an
image. This can be a mathematical operation, or a structure like edges/shapes etc. This
converts an image into an efficient vector description. A good feature is invariant to
transformations. (Invariance = The property of remaining unchanged regardless of changes
in the conditions of measurement).
Geometric invariance: translation, rotation, scale..
Photometric invariance: brightness, exposure..
Features should be/have:
- Discriminative: should be able to attenuate important nuances
- Descriptive power: allow rich descriptions
- Sufficient in quantity: hundreds or thousands in one image.
- Relatively low computation cost: real-time performance should be achievable
- Generality: exploit features in various images types.
Canny Edge Detector
The 3 main objectives for edge detection:
- Optimal edge pixel detection without false edges
(reduce noise responses).
- Good localization of the edges (minimal error distance).
- Single response per edge (one pixel (width) per edge).
A canny detector contains 4 steps.
1) Remove noise by filtering the image with a Gaussian filter.
Take a box filer (for
example a 3x3 box
with all 1 coefficients,
and a 1/9 factor) to
get the average value
per box. Slide this
box over the image,
and the center cell of
the box will get the
new averaged value.
Instead of the box filter, often a gaussian filter is used, this will result in a blurred image. This
