**Note** The lecture plan as posted at the start of semester is last
year's schedule.  There will not be any revolutionary changes, but
it will be reviewed and amended as we go along.

# Chapter 1-3. Introduction; 3D geometry and projections

**Dates** 21, 24, 28, and 31 August, and 4 and 7 September

If necessary, we will continue with Chapters 2-3 in Session 7.
It may be useful to do a session on Theorem 2.8, training proof
reading skills.

# Chapter 5.  Projective Reconstruction 

| # | Topic  | Reading | Keywords |
|---|---------------|-------------------|-----------------------------|
| 7/2022 | [Pre- and co-image]() | Ma 2004:Ch 3.3-3.4 | Radial Distortion, Tangential Distortion | |

| 21 | [Planar Scenes]()| Ma 2004:Ch 5.3 | |
| 22 | [Epipolar Geometry]()| Ma 2004:Ch 5.1-3 | |

1.  [Study Technique]() should may be needed earlier.  We introduced some
    fragments of this in 2022, but should possibly do more of it.
3.  [Relative Pose]() is a little messy.  It serves covers two things.
    - triangulation is poorly covered in the textbook and the notes,
      but the students need a recap from basic calculus
    - the essential matrix is preparation for the next session.
4.  Generally, the preliminary steps of the exploratory exercises should
    have been premade, to save time for the students.
    We have made some improvements in 2022, but we should do more.
5.  Algorithm implementation is difficult and require sample solutions.
    Some have been added in 2022, but may have to be incorporated earlier
    in the course.
6.  We need more examples with complete calculations

# Chapter X.  Machine Learning
