Academic Honesty
 All parties involved in any kind of cheating
in any exam will get zero in that exam

 Habitual cheaters will get zero in all


assignments/projects. This may lead to a
course failure

 Cheating punishment may become more


strict
Guidelines
 Read your email and messages on the course
yahoo group regularly

 Start working on projects/assignments from first day.

 Come prepared in the class

 Read book (s)

 Remain attentive during the class


Class Policies
 Frequent quizzes will be taken during the semester.
 Students are required to attend the classes regularly

and come prepared in the class room.


 Class assignments are required to be submitted on or before
the due date and time. No marks will be given
for the late submissions.
 Programming assignments should be well

documented.
 It is highly recommended that you try to do the

assignments on your own. Some questions from the


assignments may be asked in the Exams
 Class attendance policy of the University will be

followed for taking the final test.


What is an Image?
 Animage may be defined as a two
dimensional function f(x,y) where x
and y are spatial coordinates and
amplitude of f at any pair of
coordinates (x,y) is called
the intensity or Graylevel of the
image at
that point.
Digital Image
 When x,y and the amplitude values of
f are all finite, discrete quantities, we
call the image a Digital Image.
 A digital Image is composed of a finite
number of elements each of which has
a particular location and value
 These elements are referred to as
Picture Elements, Image Elements, Pels
or Pixels
Digital Image
Digital Image Processing
 The DIP field refers to processing
Digital
Images by means of Digital Computer
Related Areas
 Image Analysis
 Computer Vision (Emulating Human

Vision)

A system which makes context-based


decisions about the actions of people in
a
room. These actions include entering,
using a computer terminal, opening a
cabinet, picking up a phone, etc.
