Course Description

The general aim of Digital Video Processing is to explore the structure of the video and to understand the nature of moving images and editing them digitally. Basics of digital video editing tools such as Adobe Premiere and After Effects will be given to the students as the tools to work with. Students will be expected to use their previous design experience with their new tools. Within the scope of the course spatio-temporal sampling, motion analysis, parametric motion models, motion-compensated filtering, and video processing operations including noise reduction, restoration, super-resolution, deinterlacing and video sampling structure conversion, and compression will be examined. Video segmentation and layered video representations, watermarking, video streaming, compressed-domain video processing, and digital TV will also be covered in the course.
