COMPUTER IMAGING

▪ Defined as the acquisition and processing of visual


information by computer.
▪ The ultimate receivers of information are:
➢ computer – the machine
➢ human visual system – the user
▪ So we have two divisions:
➢ computer vision
➢ image processing

8
COMPUTER VISION AND IMAGE
PROCESSING
▪ In computer vision:
➢ the processed output images are for use by
the computer.
▪ In image processing:
➢ the output images are for human
interpretation

9
DIGITAL IMAGE
▪ We are mostly familiar with images that we can see with our eyes.
These are the images we take with our cameras. They form a very
small part of the spectrum!

10
DIGITAL IMAGE

▪ Images can be captured from other parts of the


spectrum. For example:
➢ x-ray images
➢ ultra violet images
➢ light-microscopy images
➢ satellite images
➢ thermal images

11
DIGITAL IMAGE
▪ Figure below demonstrates the same image (of a star) that has
been captured from different spectral bands.

12
DIGITAL IMAGE

▪ An image is a two-dimensional function f(x, y)


➢ x and y are spatial coordinates
➢ the amplitude of f is called intensity or gray
level at the point (x, y)

A digital image – an image


whereby x, y and the
amplitude values of f are all
finite, discrete quantities
f(x, 13y)
DIGITAL IMAGE
▪ It is an approximation of a real scene.
▪ It is a representation of a two-dimensional image.
▪ It is composed of a finite number of elements called pixels or
picture elements.
▪ Pixel values represent gray levels (intensity).

14
EXAMPLES OF DIGITAL IMAGES
a) Natural landscape
b) Synthetically generated scene
c) Poster graphic
d) Computer screenshot
e) Black and white illustration
f) Barcode
g) Fingerprint
h) X‐ray
i) Microscope slide
j) Satellite Image
k) Radar image
l) Astronomical object
15
DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING
▪ Processing digital images by means of computer.
▪ The continuum from image processing to computer vision can
be broken down into low-, mid- and high-level processes.

ORIGINS OF DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING

A digital picture (5 levels)


produced in 1921 from a
coded tape by a
telegraph printer with
special type faces.
(McFarlane.† )

Sent by submarine cable


between London and
New York, the
transportation time was
reduced to less than
three hours from more
than a week
18
ORIGINS OF DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING

Unretouched cable
picture of Generals
Pershing and Foch,
transmitted in 1929
from London to New
York by 15-tone
equipment.
(McFarlane.)

19
ORIGINS OF DIGITAL IMAGE PROCESSING
The first picture of the
moon by a U.S.
spacecraft. Ranger 7
took this image on July
31, 1964 at 9:09 A.M.
EDT, about 17 minutes
before impacting the
lunar surface. (Courtesy
of NASA.)

WHY IMAGE PROCESSING

▪ Improve/enhance an image for human


interpretation in certain ways including:
➢ image display and printing
➢ image editing
➢ image compression

21
EXAMPLE OPERATION: NOISE REMOVAL
Noisy Image Denoised Image

Think of noise as white specks on a picture (random or non-random)

22
EXAMPLES: NOISE REMOVAL

23
EXAMPLE: CONTRAST ADJUSTMENT

24
EXAMPLE: EDGE DETECTION

25
EXAMPLE: REGION DETECTION,
SEGMENTATION

26
EXAMPLE: IMAGE COMPRESSION

27
EXAMPLE: IMAGE RESTORATION
Damaged Image Restored Image

In-painting? Reconstruct corrupted/destroyed parts of an image.


28
EXAMPLES: ARTISTIC (MOVIE SPECIAL)
EFFECTS
▪ Image manipulation
▪ Image morphological
