Course Information Sheet
A. Course Overview
The purpose of this course is to present a comprehensive description of two-dimensional signal and
image processing at the introductory graduate level. The course starts with two-dimensional signals,
systems and transforms. It then continues with image processing basics, image enhancement, image
restoration, and image coding.
B. Tentative Outline
1. 2-D Signals, Systems and the Fourier Transform ( 2 wks)
2. 2-D DFT, DCT, and FFT ( 2 wks)
3. Transforms and Sub-band Representations ( 1 wk)
4. Morphological Image Processing ( 1 wk)
5. Image Processing Basics ( 1 wk)
6. Image Enhancement ( 2 wks)
7. Image Restoration ( 2 wks)
8. Image Coding ( 2 wks)
9. Project Presentations ( 1 wk)

D. Assignments
There will be (bi-)weekly assignments (homeworks) including mathematical and matlab questions.
E. Project
There will be a course project. Project will be done either individually or in a group (groupwork
is encouraged). Project deliverables include a project proposal, a project presentation (last week of
classes), and a project report. More details about the project will be available in the upcoming weeks.
