Learning Objectives
The main aim of this course is to give the basic knowledge about the
main image processing techniques and about the main methods available
to grant the security requirements like image authentication and image
confidentiality.
With such a knowledge, the student will have:
* The ability to analyze and characterize digital images, both in the time domain and in the frequency domain.
* The ability to interpret the effects of main spatial and frequency operators for image processing.
* The ability to implement simple - both active and passive - systems for authenticating and protecting digital images.
Prerequisites
Signal Theory
Teaching Methods
The course is structured in sets of taught classes and practices in
lab.
Moreover, some seminars on specific topics will be organized.
The exam consists of an oral examination, where the student is asked to answer to a set of questions on the topics included in the coursework.
As an option, the oral exam can be replaced by a practical activity, subject to availability.
