QA:

1. Do I need any background of computer vision?
Its ok if students have a solid math background and they are willing to self-study from a computer vision book, etc.

2. Will a short introduction be given for each subject covered in this course?
Yes, I will give a short tutorial for each topic that I present. Students will do the same, (Long paper presentations will have their own intro tutorial, etc)

3. Is there any requirements for the submitted review, such as the amount of words?
Yes,1.5 pages include references, etc.

4. Do I choose topics by myself or assigned by the professor?
I will work with the students and assign. So its a mutual decision.

5. Do students need to submit the paper review each time before class?
Yes, there will be penalty of 5% each late day.
