| Abstract: | In order to solve real-world problems in applied engineering areas of computer science, knowledge of basic mathematical tools is essential. The aim of this lecture is to provide a basic mathematical toolbox for selected topics of Imaging and Visualization. We will present the basic and most common mathematical techniques and use mostly applications from Computer Vision and Image Processing for illustration. The same mathematical tools, however, are also needed in many other engineering fields like Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, Computer Graphics, Robotics, and so on. The lecture will have three main parts: Basics, Tools and Practise. In the first part, we will give a reminder of linear algebra, analysis, geometry, probability and statistics basics. We go on by presenting the use of these basic concepts in methods such as parameter estimation and optimization. And finally, the students will have the opportunity to gain a deep understanding and hands-on experience of the methods by implementing them and/or using them to solve real-world problems during the exercises. |
