Computer vision (from Forsyth & Ponce):
The following lists the goals for the computer vision course:
The prerequisite is successful completion of CS 3505, Math 2210, and Math 2270 or equivalent.
We will work on the problems and solutions to image analysis using modern computer vision techniques.
Students will develop codes in Matlab.
We will use:

There are 2 major types of assignments (use the Lab Report Format for Problem reports):
The

The grading distribution will be as follows:
You are expected to make a good effort on all assignments and in-class discussion based on a careful reading of the assigned material. I will assign a grade based on how reasonable your solution is given the difficulty of the assignment, the time required, and the style and content of the solution. My goal is to look at all your work, and to assign a grade based on your participation, effort and results. It's better to ask questions before and during an assignment, than to try and understand what went wrong after it's due. The proportions given above delineate how I intend to apportion the weight of the various work in the course.
Unless otherwise stated in an assignment, all assignments will be due by classtime on the assignment due date. You should handin PDF's and code. The time that we use for an assignment is the submit time. I may ask for supporting material as well (Matlab codes, images, math analysis, etc.).
See the Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities, or the Class Schedule for more details.
Appeals of Grades and other Academic Actions
If a student believes that an academic action is arbitrary or capricious he/she should discuss the action with the involved faculty member and attempt to resolve. If unable to resolve, the student may appeal the action in accordance with the following procedure:
No late work is accepted.
The purpose of the assignments is to improve your skills at solving problems and demonstrating that you understand the class material. Collaboration with other class members is acceptable in understanding problems or software tools. For any individual assignments or work turned in, you must do your own work. Using someone else's work or giving someone else your work is considered plagiarism and will be dealt with using standard College and University procedures (i.e., failure of assignment and class). The SoC policy states: "As defined in the University Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities, academic misconduct includes, but is not limited to, cheating, misrepresenting one's work, inappropriately collaborating, plagiarism, and fabrication or falsification of information. It also includes facilitating academic misconduct by intentionally helping or attempting to help another student to commit an act of academic misconduct. A primary example of academic misconduct would be submitting as one's own, work that is copied from an outside source." (See cheating_policy.pdf and SoC_ack_form.pdf in Link to Class Info and Docs.)
