This resource delves into the fundamentals of computer vision, covering key topics including image formation, early vision principles, and cognitive aspects in psychology. It further examines critical components of face recognition, discussing techniques for recognition under various conditions, such as low-resolution images and occlusion. The study discusses segmentation strategies and the importance of context and illumination. Essential theories and algorithms, such as PCA, LDA, and Hough transforms in the realm of image processing, are also highlighted to provide a comprehensive understanding of these complex subjects.

Outline • Introduction • Image Formation • Early vision • Cognition in psychology • Face recognition (I)
Paper discussion (1) • Recognition by Components: • Segmentation: blocks, cylinders, wedges, cones • Curvature, collinearity, symmetry, parallel • Contour, surface, texture • Occlusion • Top-down or bottom-up? • Relation: pairwise? http://euron.upc.es/dbtm/show_image.php?id=36
Paper discussion (2) • Face Recognition • extremely low-resolution images (Yang and Ma) • Occlusion (sparse) • Component vshollistic • Context! • Facial expression (Cohn) • Illumination (Basri and Jacobs) • Specialized (Martinez)
Image Formation • Geometry • image plane • projection • Physics of light • Brightness / Illumination • Light source • Lambertian • scattered such that the apparent brightness of the surface to an observer is the same regardless of the observer's angle of view (wiki) nikonweb.com
