What is an Image?
A digital image: is a representation of a
two-dimensional image as a finite number of
elements, each one has a particular location
and value.. These element are called picture
elements, image elements or pixels.
❑ Pixels: Smallest elements of the digital image, each has
intensity.

❑ Intensity of pixel: the amplitude of gray level (in gray


scale images)
What is digital Image?
Image Acquisition using Sensor Array

❑ Images are typically generated by illuminating a


scene and absorbing the energy reflected by the objects
in that scene.

✔An image: a multidimensional function of spatial coordinates.

✔ Spatial coordinate: (x,y) for 2D case such as photograph,


(x,y,z) for 3D case such as CT scan images
(x,y,t) for movies

✔ The function f may represent intensity (for monochrome images) or color


(for color images) or other associated values.
Image Digitization
❑ Computers use discrete form of the pictures
❑ The process transforming continuous analog image
into discrete approximated image is called
digitization.

❑Two steps:
– Sampling and
– Quantization
Image Sampling And Quantisation

Sampling:
❑ Digitizing coordinates
❑ A process which converts the continuous analog space into a
discrete space

Quantization:
❑ Digitizing amplitudes (gray scale values)
❑ A process of converting a continuous analogue signal into a
digital representation of that signal

What is digital image processing (DIP)?

❑ DIP:
- Processing of image which are digital in nature by a
digital computer.

❑ DIP focuses on two major tasks


–Improvement of pictorial information for human
perception and interpretation.

–Processing of image data for storage, transmission and


representation for autonomous machine perception.
How DIP works?
Levels of digital image processing (DIP)

• Image Processing
▪ image in → image out
• Image Analysis
▪ image in → measurements out
• Image Understanding
▪ image in → high-level description out
Comparisons of DIP
• DIP vs Computer Graphics:
– DIP deals with raster data or bitmaps, where as computer
graphics primarily deals with vector data.
• DIP vs Signal Processing:
– Digital signal Processing deals with a one dimension signal
while DIP deals with visual information that is often in two
or more dimensions.
• DIP vs Machine/Computer Vision:
– The main goal of machine vision is to interpret the image
and to extract its physical, geometric, or topological
properties.
Why do we need to learn DIP?

❑Image is better than any other


information form for our human being
to perceive.

❑Vision allows humans to perceive and


understand the world surrounding us.

❑Has many potential applications


DIP Applications
❑ Almost all of the technical fields are impacted by DIP.
▪ Image enhancement/restoration
▪ Medical visualization
▪ Remote sensing
▪ Transmission and encoding
▪ Machine/Robot vision
▪ Satellite Imaging
▪ Law enforcement
▪ Human computer interfaces
Others
▪ Color processing
▪ Pattern recognition
▪ Video processing
Image sharpening and restoration
❑ to make them a better image
❑ to manipulate images in way to achieve desired
result.
▪ Zooming, blurring , sharpening , gray scale to color conversion,
detecting edges and vice versa ,
▪ Image retrieval and Image recognition.
❑ The common examples are:

Zoomed Image
Medical field

❑The common applications of DIP in the field


of medical is
– Gamma ray in nuclear medicine and
astronomical observation
– PET scan
– X Ray Imaging
– Medical CT
– Remote Sensing
Transmission and encoding
❑The very first image that has been transmitted
over the wire was from London to New York
via a submarine cable. The picture that was
sent is shown below.

❑The picture that was sent took three hours to


reach from one place to another.

❑Color processing
❑ includes processing of colored images and different color spaces
that are used. For example RGB color model , YCbCr, HSV. It also
involves studying transmission , storage , and encoding of these
color images.

❑Pattern recognition
❑ image processing is used for identifying the objects in an images
and then machine learning is used to train the system for the
change in pattern. Pattern recognition is used in computer aided
diagnosis , recognition of handwriting , recognition of images
e.t.c.

❑Video processing
❑ A video is nothing but just the very fast movement of pictures.
The quality of the video depends on the number of
frames/pictures per minute and the quality of each frame being
used. Video processing involves noise reduction , detail
enhancement , motion detection , frame rate conversion , aspect
