1. Classical Computer Vision & Image Processing with OpenCV

  • Pixel manipulation, colorspaces (BGR, HSV, LAB), histogram equalization, and adaptive thresholding
  • Spatial filtering: Gaussian blur, bilateral filter, Sobel edge detection, and Canny algorithm
  • Morphological operations (dilation, erosion, opening, closing) and contour analysis
  • Feature detection and matching: Harris corners, SIFT, ORB, and homography image stitching
  • Geometric transformations, camera calibration, perspective rectification, and optical flow

2. Deep Learning for Vision & Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs)

  • CNN mechanics: Convolutions, pooling, receptive fields, stride, padding, and backpropagation in PyTorch
  • Modern backbone architectures: ResNet, ConvNeXt, EfficientNet, and MobileNetV4
  • Data augmentation pipelines with Albumentations: Random cropping, affine transforms, color jitter, and CutMix/MixUp

  • Visualizing activations with Grad-CAM and debugging feature map representations

3. State-of-the-Art Object Detection & Real-Time YOLO

  • Evolution of object detection: Two-stage (Faster R-CNN) vs One-stage (SSD, RetinaNet, YOLO)
  • Deep dive into modern YOLO architectures (YOLOv8, YOLOv10, and YOLO11): NMS-free dual label assignments, C2f modules, and SPPF
  • Bounding box regression loss: IoU, GIoU, DIoU, CIoU, and Distribution Focal Loss (DFL)
  • Custom dataset curation: Annotation formats (COCO, YOLO, VOC) and Roboflow dataset pipelines
  • Model training, hyperparameter evolution, validation metrics (mAP@0.5, mAP@0.5:0.95), and FPS benchmarking

4. Image Segmentation, Multi-Object Tracking & Pose Estimation

  • Semantic segmentation with U-Net and DeepLabV3+ for pixel-level classification
  • Instance segmentation with YOLO-seg and Mask R-CNN: Polygon mask extraction and overlay
  • Multi-Object Tracking (MOT): Kalman Filters, Hungarian algorithm, SORT, DeepSORT, and ByteTrack

  • Face detection and biometric recognition with RetinaFace and ArcFace embeddings

5. Vision Transformers (ViT) & Multimodal Vision-Language Models

  • Self-attention mechanisms in computer vision: Patch embeddings, positional encodings, and Vision Transformers (ViT)
  • Swin Transformer and hierarchical feature representation
  • Zero-shot visual recognition with OpenAI CLIP (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training)
  • Foundation vision models: Segment Anything Model (SAM / FastSAM) for zero-shot mask segmentation
  • Vision-Language Models (VLMs) and Visual Question Answering (VQA) with LLaVA

6. Edge AI Deployment, TensorRT Optimization & Industrial Capstone

  • RTSP video ingestion pipelines with OpenCV, FFmpeg, and GStreamer for multi-camera feeds
