This course is a multi-disciplinary project course with user cooperation in all phases of the project, from a general described theme to a specific and finished result. The project will be reported in different media. The project is expected to be integrated with the Business Development Lab course (part of the I&E minor).
The students will be assigned to teams. Each team will chose a subject for developing a project of an interactive system, applying the user-centred design process stages, under the supervision of one of the professors of the course. The teams will present in the classroom the status of their projects at different stages of the design process.

About 80% of the data generated worldwide is visual information: images and videos. To capitalize on the value of this enormous amount of information, various technologies are needed to organize, store, retrieve and interpret this information automatically.
In this scenario, image mining provides the framework and tools needed to extract the implicit knowledge, useful data and relationship between image data from the images stored in large image databases.
Since the course does not presuppose prior knowledge of image processing, the first part of the course focuses on providing students with the concepts and methods needed to understand how to structure the information contained in images, which is the first step in starting an image mining project..
