Goal of Computer Vision
Mimic Human Vision System
Computer Vision Topic: 1 4 / 31
AI Vs ML Vs DIP Vs CV
I Goal of AI : Mimic nature in solving problems
I Goal of ML: Mimic human brain in solving problems
I Goal of DIP: Process the input image for various applications
• Low Level Image Processing: i/p: image; o/p: image
• Middle Level Image Processing: i/p: image; o/p: features of image
• High Level Image Processing: i/p: features of image; o/p:
information from image
I ML is AI
I DIP is basis for CV

Definition of Computer Vision
I Defn of Computer Vision: Level: 60%
Given the image(s) of a scene, • CV=DIP+PR/ML
find the information about the
scene
I Giving more weightage for
high level image processing
refers to Computer vision
• DIP: Low level: 60% ;
Middle Level 30%; High
Level: 10%
• CV: Low level: 10% ;
Middle Level 30%; High

Brief History of Computer Vision
I In 1950s, Using ANN, edges of • UK police developed
objects were computed and number plate recognition
some simple objects such as system
circles and squares were • MIT introduced the first
recognized ever Computer Vision
I In 1966, Marvin course
Minsky(Turing Award
Winner(1969), MIT) gave the
following summer project to
an undergraduate student
• Connect a camera to a
computer and make
computer to print(text)
what the camera sees
I In 1970s
