Basics in computer vision

This specialization is intended for a wide range of specialists who want to start getting acquainted with the direction of Computer Vision. In the frame of the specialization, students can organize their mathematical and programming skills necessary for the development of algorithms in the field of Computer vision, as well as learn how to use the OpenCV library for analyzing two-dimensional images. The OpenCV library is widely used by computer vision application developers, so students will be able to apply the skills acquired in this specialization in their real practical activities.

During the course "Mathematics for ComputerVision", students will complete the project “Use matrix filters and set functions to detect the edges of an object in the image”. During the working at this project, students using Python programming language (Jupiter's notebook), will implement the application that performs the required functions. All operations will have to be implemented independently without using third-party libraries.

At the course "Object-oriented Programming", students will apply the acquired skills and develop an application in C++ programming language.

At the course "2D Image Processing", students will design the application -Development of  C++ application that use OpenCV to detect and count coins in a given image.  In addition, they will test the quality of created detector application.
