Contents of the course

The objective of this course is to introduce fundamental notions of image processing, digital geometry, computational geometry and computer graphics. The first lectures will be dedicated to image processing (filtering, smoothing, morphological mathematics, …) and shape representation. Then, we will focus on theoretical and algorithmic issues involved in the analysis of digital shapes. During this analysis of digital geometry processing tools, we will have to present and integrate some tools from various fields: discrete mathematics, combinatorics, arithmetic, computational geometry… The lecture ends with some basic knowledge on computer graphics, geometry processing and rendering.
