Computer Vision - A Human Computer Interface
Agenda • Introduction • Tasks of Computer Vision • Computer Vision Systems • Applications • Human-Computer Interface • Good and Bad • Conclusion
Introduction Computer Vision • Interprets visual images • Sub field of AI • Alternate to text input • Understands scene or features in image
Tasks of Computer Vision • Object Recognition • Tracking • Scene Interpretation • Ego Positioning
Computer Vision Systems • Image acquisition • Preprocessing • Feature Extraction • Registering
The Barber Pole The Aperture Problem
Applications • Used in Artificial Intelligence • Industrial Applications • Automation • Robotics • Bio-Medicine • Satellite observation of Earth (continued…)
Video Surveillance • Controlling Traffic • Creating Visual effects for Cinema and Broadcast • Medical Industry and Military also
Human-Computer Interface It can be used in several fields such as • Detection of people, faces, hands. • Human motion and gesture recognition. • Facial expression recognition.
Detection of people, faces, hands • Detecting facial expressions • Extraction of faces • Lip tracking • Personal Identity verification • Surveillance • Gender classification Detection of faces and hands
Human motion and gesture recognition • Human beings uses ears & eyes as main sources • Computer Vision provides perceptual interfaces • Commercial & technical applications already started in this field
Here in the above figure a man is trying to switch channels using gestures.
Facial expression recognition • Security law enforcement • More understand & communicative The Smile Analysis Program.
The Good & Bad Good about Computer Vision: • Computer Vision is a Knowledge Representation • It doesn't change working environment • It reduces the work to be done • Has Many applications
Bad about Computer Vision • Real world problems can’t be constructed easily • It is expensive • It is difficult • A huge amount of neural processing power is required
Last Words • Interprets visual images • Computer Vision is too broad • It is also a highly inter-related subject • Progress has been slow • This represents the greatest intellectual challenge in the field.
