Content and learning outcomes

Course contents

  • Overview of problems and methods in geometric computing such as image based visualization and automatic shape recognition.
  • Basic algebra and geometry of imaging systems.
  • Geometric basis of texture mapping.
  • Mathematics and geometry of multiple views.
  • Calibration and 3D reconstruction from multiple views.
  • Methods for analysis of geometric shape.
  • Robust statistics and matching problems.
  • Methods for image-based rendering.

Intended learning outcomes

After the completion of the course the student is expected to

  • describe the research area of image-based 3D visualization and commercial systems for this,
  • give an account for the mathematical and geometric foundations used in image-based 3D reconstruction and visualization,
  • apply known methods for mathematical and numerical treatment of problems of geometric nature,
  • implement methods for automatic extraction of geometric information from images,
  • describe how a system for automatic creation of 3D models from known images might look like,
  • describe the most common methods for image-based rendering.

Examination and completion

Grading scale

A, B, C, D, E, FX, F

Examination

  • TEN1 - Exam, 3.0 credits, grading scale: A, B, C, D, E, FX, F
  • LAB1 - Laboratory Works, 3.0 credits, grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

In this course all the regulations of the code of honor at the School of Computer science and Communication apply, see: http://www.kth.se/csc/student/hederskodex/1.17237?l=en_UK.
