====== TTK25 Computer Vision for Control ======

**Instructor:** Christian Schellewald

The course will be given in English.

**Course information** 
For this course a selection of papers that are of interest for the participants
and have a topic that can be related to Computer Vision and/or robotics will be
assigned to the students.
Each student will hold a short presentation (~15minutes+ ~5 minutes questions) based
on the assigned paper and some other students will ask a few questions.
We will have a selection of papers one can choose from, but students can also propose a
topic/paper to present. Knowledge gained through TTK4255-Robotic Vision will
make the understanding easier.

**Tasks during the course:**
Hold one ~13minute (+5 minutes questions/discussion) presentation of a relevant paper.
Read at least one paper before the other Sessions (for the sessions when the students are not giving a presentation)  
and prepare 4-5 questions and have an opinion about the paper. Questions will be asked after the paper-presentation .
**Examination:**
There will be an oral exam at the end of the course. This is
about the presented paper and 2-3 additional papers read during the course.
