 Geodetic Science 831 - Advanced Pattern Recognition and Interpretation Methods in Digital Mapping

Instructor: Alper Yilmaz, PhD
Office: Bolz Hall 214C
Lecture Day&Time: Tuesday 3:30pm-4:18pm

Cource Book:
Richard O. Duda, Peter E. Hart, David G. Stork: Pattern Classification (2nd Edition), Wiley-Interscience, 2000.

Cource Objective: GS831 provides students with both theoretical and practical aspects of pattern recognition and classification in the image and video domains. Several examples will be provided throughout the course to provide the students the tools to apply these cocepts on real world scenarios.

 Papers for Presentation

Requirements

  • 1 page, single space (1inch borders), 11pt paper critic from every student
  • 1 hour presentation by the group of 2 people
  • Questions, answers and discussion
  • Program demo in the class

Ranking of presentations

  • Every student should rank (1st rank is the best) the presentations (except for theirs) at the end of quarter.
  • The rankings are kept confidential and will not be disclosed
  • Every ranked presentation should have an accompanying score. The scores are 1 to 5, 1 being the best 5 being acceptable.
  • The scores can be the same for different presentations but rankings must be different.
  • Your rankings and scores will have 30% weight and instructors rankings will have 70% weight during the evaluations.
