Study Notes
Computer Vision Overview
- Computer vision is a field of artificial intelligence (AI).
- It enables computers and systems to derive meaningful information from visual inputs (images, videos).
- It allows computers to "see," observe, and understand visual information.
Computer Vision vs. Computer Graphics
- Computer vision recognizes environments using images.
- Input: Images.
- Output: Description (e.g., object locations, dimensions).
- Computer graphics generates synthetic images from described information.
- Input: Description.
- Output: Images.
Computer Vision Pipeline
- Image acquisition: digital images from sensors (cameras, radar, etc.).
- Pre-processing: essential steps to prepare the image (noise reduction, contrast enhancement).
- Segmentation: partitioning the image into regions of similarity.
- Feature extraction: identifying measurable characteristics (edges, corners).
- Feature selection: prioritizing relevant features.
- High-level processing: classifying objects and estimating properties.
Computer Vision Tasks
- Object detection and recognition: identifying and classifying patterns in images.
- Face recognition: identifying and classifying human faces.
- Content-based image retrieval: finding images based on their content (color, shape).
- Optical character recognition (OCR): converting handwritten text to digital text.
Image Processing
- Image processing manipulates images to enhance quality or prepare for analysis.
- Input: Images.
- Output: Images.
- Image processing techniques are often used as steps in computer vision systems.
Filters
- Linear filters (e.g., uniform, triangular, Gaussian): reduce noise by averaging pixel values.
- Non-linear filters (e.g., median, max, min): suppress certain types of noise and preserve edges.
Coordinates and Images
- 2D coordinates: two numbers specify a location on a plane.
- 3D coordinates: three numbers specify a location in 3D space.
- Right-handed and left-handed coordinate systems are used in 3D.
- Digital images represent an image as a finite set of digital values, called picture elements or pixels.
- Color depth: the number of bits to store a color value of a pixel.
Image Categories
- Binary images: only two values (black or white).
- Grayscale images: shades of gray.
- Color images: RGB color space (combination of red, green, and blue).
- Multispectral images: capture intensities outside the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Digital Filters
- An image can be filtered in the spatial or frequency domain.
- Spatial filtering involves convolving the image with a filter kernel.
- Convolution: a mathematical operation fundamental to many image processing operators.
Image Noise
- Noise degrades image quality (e.g., dust on lens).
- Smoothing operations can be used to reduce noise.
- Types of noise: salt and pepper, Gaussian.
Computer Vision Applications
- Manufacturing (correct product positioning).
- Visual auditing (detecting issues in equipment such as trucks, planes, etc.).
- Medical image processing (tumor detection).
- Automotive industry (object detection, parking assistance).
- Social commerce (finding similar homes based on image).
- Social listening (detecting product logos in social media).
- Retail (finding an item's price in various stores).
- Education (locating similar educational materials).
- Public safety (license plate reading).
