Courses

During 2004 the following graduate courses were given:

1. Modern imaging systems, 5p
   Examiner: Ewert Bengtsson
   Lecturers: Ewert Bengtsson, Lars Bååth, Anders Liljeborg, Åsa Kassman Rudolphi, Ulf Skoglund, Hans Lundqvist, Mats Bergström, Tomas Jansson, Ove Steinvall, Lars Ulander, Petra Philipsson
   Period: 0401-04
   Description: A PhD course systematically covering the different ways in which images can be created with modern imaging devices.
   Comment: The course had 28 participants.

2. Deformable models in digital image analysis, 2p
   Examiner: Gunilla Borgefors 
   Lecturer: Ghassan Hamarneh 
   Period: 0408
   Description: This summercourse in deformable models and active shape models consisted of two days of lectures and excercies at CBA. In addition, a report from the excercises and the algorithms applied to own image material was compulsory. The wish for a summercourse in image analysis was expressed at the PhD day in connection to the annual symposium for the Swedish Society for Image Analysis (SSBA). Ola Weistrand and Ida-Maria Sintorn volonteered to orgianize such a course.
   Comment: 20 PhD students from all over Sweden attended the course. SSBA, SLU and UU sponsored the course.

3. Research methodology for image analysis, 2p
   Examiners: Gunilla Borgefors
   Lecturers: Gunilla Borgefors, Ewert Bengtsson, Ida-Maria Sintorn, and Caroline Myrberg, Beurling Library, UU
   Period: 0409-10
   Description: The course gives general and useful knowledge about how to become a good and published researcher in image analysis and/or various applications thereof (especially medicine, forest industry and remote sensing). Many questions of the type "How?" and "Where?" was answered.
   Comment: The course had 10 participants.
4. Application oriented image analysis, 5p
   Examiner: Gunilla Borgefors
   Lecturers: Gunilla Borgefors, Mats Erikson, Petra Philipsson, Ida-Maria Sintorn, Robin Strand, Stina Svensson
   Computer exercises: Maria Axelsson
   Period: 0410-12
   Description: The aim of this course is to give PhD students in other areas enough knowledge to use image analysis in their research. It is application oriented in the sense that it does not go too deeply into fundamental mathematics, but concentrate on basic concepts and general methodology. The course book is "Gonzalez & Woods, Digital Image Processing, Addison & Wesley, 2002".
   Comment: The course had 20 participants.
