Rigorous background on mathematics
as well as computer vision is required.
In particular, sufficient knowledge of
linear algebra, graph theory and number
theory are important requirements.
Programming skills on image processing
or computer vision are also required.
Potential applicants can send your CV
and research interests/proposals directly
to Prof. Sugimoto before your
application.
