Octave-Forge, the community project for collaborative development of GNU Octave extensions (some of these extension somewhat mirror some of MATLAB's toolboxes, but there are significant differences).

The Octave FAQ (see, in particular, the differences between Octave and MATLAB).

If, on the other hand, you need to make extensive use of MATLAB toolboxes, you may need to consider purchasing MATLAB Student. For most undergraduate work in the ECE department, GNU Octave should be sufficient. On the other hand, support for the functionality of MATLAB toolboxes is somewhat spotty. Octave is essentially an attempt to copy Matlab, it's free, less people use it, it's not as well known. It's rather expensive but very useful, and it's got loads of addons to do all sorts of things.

The core GNU Octave package was developed specifically with MATLAB compatibility in mind, and there are only minor differences between the two (these are mostly syntactical extensions that are unique to Octave). Matlab is a well respected program developed by a large company, and it's essentially an industry standard when it comes to math. The link to the site you supplied does not seem to provide support for vision object functionalities.

#OCTAVE VS MATLAB INSTALL#

General rule is, Octave comes short in matching Matlab toolboxes and when it has something, you need to install the Octave packages separately. Alternatively, one can purchase MATLAB Student from Mathworks. Those are Matlab functions from the Computer Vision System Toolbox. Consequently, students are recommended to install instead GNU Octave which is open-source and largely compatible with MATLAB. Effectively January 2016, the university no longer has a license for MATLAB that permits students to download or install MATLAB to their personal computers.
