CS59300CVD: Comp. Vision With Deep Learning (Fall 2024)

Images generated from ImageGen 2 with the text prompt Computer Vision


Course Information

Computer vision is a field that focuses on building machines that can see. In this course, we will cover the fundamentals of major tasks in computer vision, starting from the basics of image formation to modern computer vision methods based on deep learning. By the end of this course, students will have a solid foundation for conducting research in computer vision and the necessary technical background to understand and implement state-of-the-art vision papers.

Policies

Late & Absence Policy

We do not accept late assignments, i.e., late assignment by a second will be counted as 0%. For the consistency and fairness to all students, we follow the policy and absence request through the Office of the Dean of Students.

Academic Honesty

Please refer to Purdue's Student Guide for Academic Integrity. Academic dishonesty will result in an automatic zero on an assignment (not droppable) and the course grade will be reduced by one full letter grade. A second attempt will result in a failing grade for the course. It is one's responsibility to prevent others from copying your work.

Accessibility

Purdue University strives to make learning experiences as accessible as possible. If you anticipate or experience physical or academic barriers based on disability, please contact the Disability Resource Center at: drc@purdue.edu or by phone at 765-494-1247 and the course instructor to arrange for accommodations.

Classroom Guidance Regarding Protect Purdue

Any student who has substantial reason to believe that another person is threatening the safety of others by not complying with Protect Purdue protocols is encouraged to report the behavior to and discuss the next steps with their instructor. Students also have the option of reporting the behavior to the Office of the Student Rights and Responsibilities. See also Purdue University Bill of Student Rights and the Violent Behavior Policy under University Resources in Brightspace.
