A strong foundation in mathematics is crucial for computer vision. Linear algebra is essential for understanding transformations, convolutional operations, and neural network architectures. Calculus is used in optimization algorithms, such as gradient descent, to train models. Probability and statistics are key for understanding machine learning algorithms, feature distributions, and model evaluation. Geometry plays a role in tasks like camera calibration and 3D reconstruction. Discrete mathematics and graph theory are useful for understanding algorithms like graph-based segmentation or optical flow. These mathematical concepts form the backbone of computer vision algorithms and models.
