Introduction to linear algebra: vectors and matrices, solving systems of linear equations, vector spaces and subspaces, orthogonality and least squares, determinants, eigenvalues and eigenvectors, singular value decomposition and linear transformations. Applications in and links to computer science will be presented in parallel.

The goal of this course is an introduction and hands-on experience on latest mixed reality technology at the cross-section of 3D computer graphics and vision, human machine interaction, as well as gaming technology.

This course acquaints students with core knowledge in computer graphics, image processing, multimedia and computer vision. Topics include: Graphics pipeline, perception and camera models, transformation, shading, global illumination, texturing, sampling, filtering, image representations, image and video compression, edge detection and optical flow.
