Study Notes

Image Representation Fundamentals

  • A pixel is the smallest unit of an image, displaying a uniform color.
  • Resolution of an image is denoted as H × W, representing height (H) and width (W).
  • An image is viewed as a bounded two-dimensional space limited on all sides.

Camera Sensor Functionality

  • Optical camera sensors capture colored signals through their shutter.
  • Sensors convert incoming signals into energy/intensity for each red, green, and blue (RGB) wavelength.
  • Signals are continuous in space but are sampled discretely to create images.

Image Channels

  • Each channel (e.g., R, G, B, A) represents a different color component.
  • An RGB image consists of three channels, while an RGBA image contains four channels.
  • Hyper-spectral images can capture more than three channels, incorporating ultra- and infra-optical spectra.

Image Representation in Different Formats

  • Floating-Point Representation: Represents colors in 16-bit, 32-bit, or 64-bit precision.
    • RGB image is expressed as x ∈ R³×H×W [0,1].
    • RGBA image is expressed as x ∈ R⁴×H×W [0,1].
  • 8-Bit Fixed-Point Representation: Generally uses 8-bit per channel.
    • RGB image is expressed as x ∈ Z₃×H×W [0,255].
    • RGBA image is expressed as x ∈ Z₄×H×W [0,255].

Grayscale Image Representation

  • A grayscale image with floating-point representation can be described as x ∈ R¹×H×W [0,1].
  • For 8-bit fixed-point representation, it is described as x ∈ Z¹×H×W [0,255].
  • In 16-bit fixed-point representation, it is described as x ∈ Z¹×H×W [0,65535].

Storage Requirements for Uncompressed Images

  • Minimum size for storing FHD resolution RGB image (1920×1080):
    • Size = H × W × 3 bytes + H bytes (for header).
  • Minimum size for storing FHD resolution RGBA image:
    • Size = H × W × 4 bytes + H bytes (for header).

Color Theory Overview

  • Color is the visual perception linked to the electromagnetic spectrum and varies based on object light absorption and reflection characteristics.

RGB Color Model

  • Human perception of color involves trichromacy, utilizing three types of cone cells sensitive to different light wavelengths.
  • Common RGB representation includes a 3-vector in machine format:
    • Color in floating-point: c ∈ R³ [0,1].
    • Color in 8-bit fixed-point: c ∈ Z³ [0,255].

Image Composition

  • An image can be conceptually divided into a rectangular grid composed of individual pixels.
  • Each pixel in the grid corresponds to a specific visual component of the overall image.
