In Computer Graphics, and also in Image processing and in Design, professionals are used to speak about "better" or "worse" quality for pictures. Contrary to popular belief, however, there is no general method for analyzing the quality of picture. The course will start with a wide introduction to light transport and reflection theory, continue with a trip through digital and analogue image capture and reproduction and a survey of image compression methods. In its last part the course will focus on methods for evaluating the quality of pictures and of animated sequences, revealing advantages and disadvantages of different display and printing techniques and of the different compression methods.
