Digital Image Processing

Prerequisites:
Knowledge of Linear Algebra, Probability and Statistics, Signals and systems,
Basic Programming skills (C++, MATLAB).

Objectives:

This course is an introduction to the fundamental concepts and techniques in basic digital
image processing and their applications to solve real life problems.

Motivation:

The human perspective of image varies from person to person. There is always a necessity to
improve the pictorial information for human perception. Digital image processing involves
various techniques for using image for use in health care, sports, security, entertainment etc.
There is a strong need from industry and research that the engineers should have knowledge
of the different methods and tools available to enhance the visual as well as the aesthetic
content of images through processing
Course Outcomes:
CO1: Understand the mathematical foundations for digital manipulation of images; image
acquisition
CO2: Understand 2D Fourier transform concepts, including the 2D DFT and FFT, and their
use in frequency domain filtering.
CO3: Demonstrate understanding of spatial filtering techniques, including linear and
nonlinear methods. Understand the Human Visual System (HVS) and its effect on
image perception and understanding
CO4: Understand the fundamental image enhancement algorithms such as histogram
modification, contrast manipulation, and edge detection and image compression
technique like JPEG and MPEG
CO5: Implement practical techniques to write programs using MATLAB language for digital
manipulation of images; image acquisition; preprocessing; segmentation; Fourier
domain processing; and compression
