    Study Notes

    Image Processing

    • Image processing is a fundamental step in computer vision that involves enhancing, transforming, and extracting features from images.
    • Goals:
      • Improve image quality
      • Extract relevant information
      • Prepare images for further analysis
    • Techniques:
      • Filtering (e.g., blur, sharpen, edge detection)
      • Transformations (e.g., rotation, scaling, flipping)
      • Thresholding (e.g., binary, grayscale)
      • Segmentation (e.g., separating objects from the background)

    Object Detection

    • Object detection involves locating and identifying objects within an image or video.
    • Types:
      • Edge-based detection (e.g., Canny edge detection)
      • Region-based detection (e.g., R-CNN, YOLO)
      • Hybrid approaches (e.g., combining edge and region-based methods)
    • Challenges:
      • Occlusion (objects partially hidden)
      • Variability in object appearance (e.g., lighting, pose, viewpoint)
      • Background clutter

    Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

    • OCR involves recognizing and extracting text from images of printed or typed documents.
    • Techniques:
      • Feature extraction (e.g., identifying character shapes, strokes)
      • Pattern recognition (e.g., matching features to known characters)
      • Post-processing (e.g., correcting errors, formatting text)
    • Applications:
      • Document scanning and digitization
      • Automated data entry
      • Language translation

    Scene Understanding

    • Scene understanding involves interpreting and analyzing the context and meaning of an image or video.
    • Tasks:
      • Object recognition and classification
      • Scene classification (e.g., indoor, outdoor, landscape)
      • Activity recognition (e.g., identifying actions, events)
    • Challenges:
      • Complexity of real-world scenes
      • Variability in lighting, viewpoints, and occlusions
      • Ambiguity in scene interpretation

    Facial Recognition

    • Facial recognition involves identifying and verifying individuals based on their facial features.
    • Techniques:
      • Face detection (e.g., locating faces in an image)
      • Face alignment (e.g., normalizing face orientation)
      • Feature extraction (e.g., identifying facial landmarks, textures)
      • Matching and verification (e.g., comparing features to known faces)
    • Applications:
      • Security and surveillance
      • Identity verification
      • Marketing and advertising
