Since the rapid growth of deep learning, computer vision has become a prominent technology applied to many application scenarios. The objective of this course is to learn about aspects of computer vision as applied research, connecting it with related research fields including human vision and human-computer interaction. The final goal is to write a speculative/imaginary research paper that would be presented at computer vision (or related) conferences in the not-too-distant future. Through this process, students are expected to learn skills in both developing creative research ideas about visual information processing and describing them in the format of a professional research paper.
This course will take a hybrid format combining lectures, workshops, and presentations.
The final assignment is to submit a revised report based on feedback during the presentation phase.
All lectures and presentations will be given in English (Japanese may be used if necessary).
There are no specific requirements. Students are expected to have basic knowledge of computer vision, together with broader interests in its surrounding research fields.
