[{"Course code":"P000089","Version":1,"English name":"Introduction to image analysis for forest sciences.","Higher education credits":4.5,"Syllabus":"FUN SFAK","Valid from":"VT2024","Syllabus approved":"2023-11-10","Level within study regulation":"Third cycle","Grading scale":"Pass \/ Failed","Language":"Swedish","Entry requirements":"*Phd student, and basic knowledge in R, MATlab or Octave*","Objectives":"*The objective of the course is to give an introduction to image analysis suitable for research in forest sciences. On completion of the course, the student will be able to: *\n\n\n- *perform image preprocessing such as greyscale thresholding and noise reduction *\n- *apply basic filters (e.g., mean or median) to images *\n- *perform histogram processing of images *\n- *apply morphological filters to images *\n- *perform basic image segmentation *\n- *perform image classification *\n- *perform basic object recognition *","Content":"*The course is built on lectures and computer exercises. The exercises are done in R and Octave. **The main elements of the course are as follows: *\n\n\n- *Image acquisition *\n- *Image enhancement *\n- *Histogram processing *\n- *Morphological processing *\n- *Image segmentation *\n- *Image classification *\n- *Object recognition *","Examination formats":"* Passed exercises and passed student project.* \r\n- If a student has failed an examination, the examiner has the right to issue supplementary assignments. This applies if it is possible and there are grounds to do so.\r\n\r\n- The examiner can provide an adapted assessment to students entitled to study support for students with disabilities following a decision by the university. Examiners may also issue an adapted examination or provide an alternative way for the students to take the exam.\r\n\r\n- If this syllabus is withdrawn, SLU may introduce transitional provisions for examining students admitted based on this syllabus and who have not yet passed the course.\r\n\r\n- For the assessment of an independent project (degree project), the examiner may also allow a student to add supplemental information after the deadline for submission.
