This page contains information specifically related to the Computer Vision seminars for MSc students. For general course material, and information for BA/BSc students, please return to the main course page.
For the first assignment, choose one essay from the following list, or do the first programming exercise (details to follow on main course web page).
The deadline is Thursday 8 February. The essay should be 2000 - 3000 words. Please see the bibliography for reading.
The assignment does not contribute to your formal assessment for the degree.
