When will I have access to the lectures and assignments?

To access the course materials, assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience when you enroll in a course. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid. The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.

What will I get if I subscribe to this Specialization?

When you enroll in the course, you get access to all of the courses in the Specialization, and you earn a certificate when you complete the work. Your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile.

Is financial aid available?

Yes. In select learning programs, you can apply for financial aid or a scholarship if you can’t afford the enrollment fee. If fin aid or scholarship is available for your learning program selection, you’ll find a link to apply on the description page.

Master the fundamental preprocessing techniques that power modern computer vision systems. Raw visual data is everywhere, but transforming it into actionable insights requires precise preprocessing and motion analysis skills that separate successful AI engineers from the rest.

This Short Course was created to help machine learning and AI professionals accomplish systematic image preprocessing and motion feature extraction for computer vision applications. By completing this course, you'll be able to standardize image data through normalization techniques, convert between color spaces for optimal model performance, and extract motion patterns from video sequences using industry-standard algorithms. These skills directly translate to building more robust computer vision models, improving training efficiency, and developing motion-based applications. By the end of this course, you will be able to: • Apply normalization and color-space conversions to preprocess image data • Apply optical flow and frame differencing techniques to extract motion features from video This course is unique because it combines theoretical understanding with hands-on implementation using real-world datasets, mirroring the exact preprocessing pipelines used by companies like Tesla, Facebook AI Research, and Amazon for their computer vision systems. To be successful in this project, you should have a background in Python programming, basic understanding of machine learning concepts, and familiarity with NumPy and OpenCV libraries.
