MEng in Electronic Systems
Major in Image Processing & Analysis
The increase in the adoption of Image Processing and Analysis (IPA) across a wide spectrum of application domains (manufacturing, media, ICT, life science and biomedicine) is creating a strong demand for graduates in this field.
The Image Processing & Analysis Major is unique in Ireland and will provide the graduate with leading edge
skills in the acquisition, processing, quantitative analysis, classification, visualisation and engineering
of a wide range of computer vision applications. Specifically, this major will focus on the hardware
and software issues involved in the automation or semi-automation of image feature segmentation and its
associated analysis, at both a micro and macro level.
Core modules will focus on digital image processing and specifically on computer and machine vision related
image processing and analysis and image synthesis (Graphics & Visualisation) techniques. Optional modules
will split into tasks of imaging the “internal world” (e.g. biomedical) and the “external world”.
This Major is run in conjunction with the Vision Systems Group in DCU. See http://www.vsg.dcu.ie/ for details. The core expertise provided by the Vision Systems Group is in its ability to develop and design novel computer based solutions that will allow the automatic extraction of key image features [specifically from 2D, video, 3D and 4D data sources] with a view to a robust and reliable quantitatively analysis of the key information/data within the scene.
