Learning objectives

The aim of the course is to provide students with the fundamental concepts and tools in order to apply advanced signal and image processing techniques in clinical studies based on imaging. The students will learn how to employ the most suitable algorithms and software tools to be able to solve the most typical problems that may arise in imaging studies.

Prerequisites and basic notions

Attendance of the "Signals and images 1" course is recommended but not strictly necessary for a correct and proper understanding of the course.

Program

THEORY
- Recalls of fundamental concepts of biomedical signals / images
- Methods for improving the quality and restoration of images (e.g. HDR imaging, Wiener)
- Extraction of features (e.g. Canny, Hough)
- Extraction of regions (e.g. Watershed, region growing, snakes)
- Morphological operators
- Image registration / alignment
- Image compression algorithms
LABORATORY
During the laboratory sessions some of the methodologies covered during the theory lectures will be studied more in depth by solving signal / image processing problems mainly using PYTHON.

Didactic methods

Classical lectures for the theory part, while in the hands-on sessions the students will have the opportunity to experiment and deepen the topics seen in theory through the use of PYTHON.

Learning assessment procedures

The exam consists of a written test with open-ended questions and exercises on the topics covered in the course.

Students with disabilities or specific learning disorders (SLD), who intend to request the adaptation of the exam, must follow the instructions given HERE

Evaluation criteria

Typically the exam includes 8 questions (one on each of the macro-topics covered in the course), and each question can have a grade between 0 and 4. The final grade is expressed out of thirty (32 = 30L).

Criteria for the composition of the final grade

The exam does not include a laboratory test.
