This is a master’s degree in which our School participates, but we do not coordinate it directly.
All the information is available on the website of the master’s degree.
Presentation
Computer vision has the goal of achieving scene understanding from images and videos using computers. It is one of the most prolific research fields of artificial intelligence, and the current state-of-the-art is driving the innovation at a wide range of real-world applications.
The interuniversity computer vIsion master’s programme is lectured by professors of the Unviersidade de Santiago de Compostela, Universidade da Coruña, Universidade de Vigo, and Universidade do Porto, although the students can formalize the registration at any of the four universities.
The exact same master’s degree denominated «Máster Universitario en Visión por Computador (Computer Vision)/ Grau de Mestre em Visão por Computador» issued by Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, Universidade de A Coruña, Universidade de Vigo and Universidade de Porto, will be obtained at the end of the studies, regardless of the chosen university during the registration.
Main Objective
The master addresses the need to train qualified experts in a field that is becoming fundamental in maintaining the innovative momentum in the automation of tasks that require visual cognition. With the exponential growth of the volume of digital images and videos captured by cameras, the automatic understanding of our visual world has never been more important, in applications such as:
- Healthcare. Applications in new products and services of software for Hospitals and e-Health with special emphasis on diagnostic support and contactless health monitoring.
- Automatic inspection. Application in infrastructures manteining, industrial production lines, quality control and sensors embedded in Industry 4.0.
- Mobile robotics with applications in collaborative robotics, Industry 4.0, precision agriculture, and personal assistants.
- Security of infrastructures and services. Applications in video surveillance, identification biometrics, monitoring of public spaces.
- Agriculture and land planning. Applications in land, forest and crop monitoring from satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles.
- Road safety and self-driving. Traffic control and surveillance, driving assistance systems, autonomous vehicles.
- Aquaculture and fish industry.
- Leissure, advertising and virtual shopping ….
