Master 2 MVA

This is the homepage for my course Sparsity and compressed sensing in Master 2 Mathématiques, Vision, Apprentissage - MVA.

Description

This course reviews the applications of sparse representations in image processing, with an emphasis on the compressed sensing method. It alternates between the exposition of the theory and a practical implementation of the methods. Sparsity has recently emerged as a fundamental tool in image processing. It allows one to take into account the compressibility of images in a well chosen representation. It leads to state of the art methods to regularize inverse problems such as super-resolution, medical imaging and astrophysical imaging. It is also at the heart of compressed sensing, a revolutionary method to sample data in an already compressed form.

Pre-requisite

Basics of linear algebra, calculus and Fourier transform.

Validation of the course

Attending all the numerical tours, a mini-project with a report and an oral presentation. Note that there is a special session dedicated to the preparation of the projects.
