Semester II
Course Code: 102310202
Course Title: Image Processing and Computer Vision
Type of Course: Core Course V
Course Objectives: This course will provide students with more techniques in the digital image
processing for image enhancement, restoration of noisy images, Segmentation and various machine
learning techniques. Emphasis is given more on implementation of various algorithms so that
students will able to develop their own algorithm. The techniques covered in the syllabus have wide
applicability in any field which needs to handle the image data.
