    Programme description

    This MSc, built upon the research of our Vision and Interaction group, specialises in practical programming, statistical and signal-processing techniques for the development of intelligent vision and image analysis systems.

    Intelligent imaging is a rapidly evolving field that includes security and surveillance applications, biometrics, computer and biological vision, pattern recognition, content-based image retrieval, 3D modelling, image compression, quality control and other applications of industrial and social interest.

    This programme will teach you the skills needed to develop state-of-the-art algorithms for computer vision and image processing, advanced methods for pattern recognition and 3D reconstruction, and a range of signal-processing techniques. The emphasis is on teaching fundamental algorithms of wide applicability. You will also gain a range of transferable skills, including C++ programming, essential team and research skills, numerical and statistical techniques, and analytical and design skills. You will have hands-on experience developing a range of intelligent imaging applications.

    You will be able to develop image-processing and computer vision systems for real world problems independently.
