Title: Artificial Intelligence and Adaptive Systems

Type: Undergraduate in honours specialisation(s); Postgraduate - Professional Practice Masters;

Faculty: Engineering, Computing and Mathematics

Academic informationUnit Content: Building software modules that can learn from and adapt to a changing and unknown environment is

the challenge facing many real-world problems, such as multi-robot coordination and navigation, modelling and problem solving for large complex systems. This unit covers a class of nature inspired algorithms and structures for creating programs that demonstrate emergent adaptive and intelligent behavious, including evolutionary algorithms, neural networks, machine learning and a range of optimisation techniques powered by swarm intelligence. They can be used to solve problems ranging from complex optimisation, adaptive learning to knowledge acquisition, which form the core research areas of artificial intelligence. Numerous research questions remain when such techniques are applied in real-world situations. In this interactive, project based unit, students are given the opportunities to explore the above-mentioned advanced topics in artificial intelligence and adaptive systems, research into one topic or techinque of interest, develop and apply software solutions in simulated environments.

Outcomes: On completion of this unit, students will be able to:

• Explain research questions, proposed solutions and evaluation techniques to peers and research groups in seminar settings effectively using oral communication• Produce scientific writing such as research papers that explain the hypothesis, experimental design, evaluation strategy and be able to sythesize and draw comparison with existing solutions.• Locate, digest, use and reference relevant information in the area of Artificial Intelligence and Adaptive Systems.• Participate effectively as a member of a team, in particular, value alternative and diverse viewpoints, and be able to contribute constructively to the overall team goal.• Discuss the general concepts and approaches taken for building adaptive systems• Carry out focused research investigation and literature search on one particular approach of interest• Describe the important underlying technologies in artificial intelligence and adaptive systems: neural networks, evolutionary algorithms, machine learning and various nature inspired optimisation techniques.• Develop special expertise in one of the above area of research, appreciate the fundamentals of the area, and understand the current trend and the state of the art.• Apply the techniques of selection to solve unseen/undocumented problems• Develop competency in formulating problems, devise computation models, build algorithms and software modules to solve problems that requires intelligent and adaptive solutions.• Appreciate the role of Artificial Intelligence and Adaptive Sytems in real-world problem solving and complex system modelling.• Critically discuss on open problems and research questions in the research field of Artificial Intelligence and Adaptive Systems.

Title: Computer Vision

Type: Undergraduate in honours specialisation(s); Postgraduate - Professional Practice Masters;

Faculty: Engineering, Computing and Mathematics

Academic informationUnit Content: Computer vision is the science of automatically computing information and making decisions from an

observed image, image set, or an image sequence. It combines concepts from 'image processing' (in the spatial and frequency domains) and 'pattern recognition'. Computer vision has a wide number of potential applications, including satellite imaging, control and measurement, industrial inspection, surveillance (e.g. face recognition) and medical applications. This unit covers topics such as binary image analysis, greyscale image manipulation, mathematical morphology, linear and nonlinear filtering, feature extraction and image enhancement. It also covers camera calibration and projective geometry and how three-dimensional information can be reconstructed from single images, stereo pairs of images and motion sequences. In the future, it is anticipated that computer vision systems will become prevailing, and that vision technology will be more applied across a broad range of business and consumer products. This will result in a strong industry demand for computer vision engineers—for people who understand vision technology and know how to apply it in real-world problems.

Teaching and Learning Practices:

The unit will consist of lectures and laboratory classes. Both the lectures will be for 2 hours per week. Theoretical work will be covered in the lectures. Practical work and implementation of algorithms will be covered by the exercises in the lab classes

Technologies: No data available.

Outcomes: On completion of this unit, students will be able to:• Explain Computer Vision problems in writing • Write Matlab code to solve Computer Vision problems • Describe the theories and principles in Computer Vision • Conduct independent research on a chosen research topic, write a small research report, and give an oral presentation• Demonstrate logical thinking and problem solving skills • Process images in both the spatial and frequency domains • Explain the technical theory behind formation of images • Critique various methodologies for solving problems in Computer Vision and Image Processing

Assessments tied to outcomes:
