Introduction

  • Give a definition of “Computer Vision”.
  • What type of information is extracted in each of the following applications.
  • Vision is often described as an “ill-posed, inverse problem”. Briefly describe what is meant by the terms “ill-posed” and “inverse problem” and their opposites “well-posed” and “forward problems”.
  • What is a “prior” and how does it help solve the ill-posed, inverse problem of vision? Give examples of priors.
