Notes on Feb. 16th DSLG meeting

Today Jamie and Steve worked on the Kaggle's facial keypoints competition.

We wanted to know what tools we could use so we first tried to get an overview of all the areas that are important for image processing.

Areas of image processing/computer vision:

  • Edge/corner/feature detection
  • Enhancement/Noise reduction etc.
  • Segmentation/Region detection
  • Filtering
  • Morphing
  • Geometric transformations
  • Registration/feature matching
  • Classification
  • Object detection (faces, text, digits, etc.)
  • Object tracking
  • Image retrieval/searching
  • Camera calibration
  • Scene reconstruction

A great place to learn more is MATLAB's Image Processing and Computer Vision documentation (even if you don't use MATLAB).
