Study Notes
Image Fundamentals
- Images are 2-D representations of the visible light spectrum, allowing computers to process visual information in digital formats made of bits (0 or 1).
- Understanding images is crucial before building classifiers in deep learning.
Pixels: Building Blocks of Images
- Pixels are the smallest units of information in an image, organized in a 2D grid.
- Each pixel indicates the color or intensity of light at a specific location, with more pixels providing a more accurate representation.
- Image resolution is defined by the number of rows and columns, e.g., a resolution of 300 x 200 results in 60,000 total pixels.
- Digital images can have one channel (grayscale) or three channels (RGB for color).
Grayscale and Color Representation
- In grayscale images, pixel values vary from 0 (black) to 255 (white), representing shades of gray.
- RGB color space uses three values (Red, Green, Blue) for each pixel, where each channel also ranges from 0 to 255.
Additive Color Mixing
- Combining colors in RGB space:
- Red + Green = Yellow (255, 255, 0)
- Red + Blue = Pink (255, 0, 255)
Image Formation from Channels
- RGB images consist of three distinct matrices (one for each color channel) with a shape defined by width (W), height (H), and depth (D = 3).
- These matrices can be combined to form a multi-dimensional array representing the complete color image.
Image Coordinate System
- The coordinate system for images starts at (0, 0) in the top-left corner, with pixel counting beginning at zero.
- For example, the coordinate (7, 7) refers to a position closer to the bottom-right corner in an image.
Image Processing
- Image processing techniques enhance images or extract relevant information, critical for the design of effective image classifiers.
