COMPUTER VISION

Academic Year 2025/2026 - Teacher: SEBASTIANO BATTIATO

Expected Learning Outcomes

To provide an introduction to the computer vision field by presenting the main theroretical basis and related applicative scenario.

Both theoretical and prcatical aspects will be introduced.

Course Structure

Oral lectures with several practical sessions

Should teaching be carried out in mixed mode or remotely, it may be necessary to introduce changes with respect to previous statements, in line with the programme planned and outlined in the syllabus.
