Learn image and video processing at Coursera by enrolling in the Image and Video Processing: From Mars to Hollywood with a Stop at the Hospital programme.
Learn how digital images and videos are produced, altered, processed, and used from the Image and Video Processing: From Mars to Hollywood with a Stop at the Hospital programme offered by the Duke University. From how computers and digital cameras shape pictures to the use of special effects in Hollywood movies to how the Mars Rover has been able to send photos through millions of miles of space, candidates will be introduced to the vast world of digital imaging.
The Image and Video Processing: From Mars to Hollywood with a Stop at the Hospital programme begins by looking at how the human visual system functions and then shows you how digital images work in mathematics, engineering and computer science. Candidates will learn the basic algorithms used for image adjustment and explore the standards of JPEG and MPEG for video image encoding and compression. They will learn about image segmentation, filtering and noise reduction. Finally, the programme will finish with methods of image processing used in the medical field.
