    Study Notes

    Introduction to Image Processing

    • Digital image processing involves developing systems to perform operations on digital images.
    • An image is a two-dimensional function f(x,y), where x and y represent horizontal and vertical coordinates and the amplitude at each coordinate pair (x,y) is the intensity or gray level.
    • A digital image is discrete in both coordinates (x,y) and amplitude values, making it suitable for processing by digital computers.
    • Digital images are composed of picture elements (pixels) with specific locations and assigned values.
    • Image processing is used in various fields, including nuclear medicine, astronomy, X-ray imaging, microscopy, and remote sensing.

    Image Processing System Components

    • Image Sensors: Physical devices sensitive to the energy radiated by the object being imaged.
    • Specialized Image Processing Hardware: Includes components like digitizers and arithmetic logic units to perform operations on images.
    • Computer: Performs the image processing operations, ranging from personal computers to supercomputers depending on the complexity and scale of processing.
    • Software: Specialized modules that perform specific tasks; more advanced packages allow users to integrate and utilize these modules.
    • Mass Storage: Storage for large image data, including short-term storage for use during processing, online storage for fast retrieval, and archival storage for long-term preservation.
    • Image Displays: Visual outputs, typically color TV monitors.
    • Hardcopy Devices: Output devices for permanent records, such as laser printers and film cameras.
    • Networking: Essential for transmission and sharing of large image data in modern computer systems.

    Elements of Visual Perception

    • Structure of the Human Eye: The eye is a nearly spherical structure with three main membranes: cornea and sclera (outer layer, transparent and protective), choroid (middle layer, containing blood vessels for nourishment), and retina (innermost layer, containing light receptors).
    • Iris Diaphragms: Control the amount of light entering the eye.
    • Ciliary Body: Adjusts the lens shape for focusing
    • Retina: Contains photoreceptor cells (cones for color vision and rods for low-light vision) to sense light and transmit signals to the brain.
    • Brightness Adaptation and Discrimination: The visual system adapts to different light levels (from low light to bright light), enabling varying sensitivities. A subjective logarithmic response is typical.
    • Optical Illusions: Visual system's response to interpret non-existent data or misinterpret existing spatial details in an image.

    Fundamental Steps in Digital Image Processing

    • Image Acquisition: Capturing the image, converting an analog image to a digital image( e.g, scanning, digital camera).
    • Image Enhancement: Improving the visual appearance of the image, such as improving contrast
    • Image Restoration: Improving image quality if the image has been degraded due to noise
    • Color Image Processing: Deals with color models and their implementation in image processing to obtain detailed information from images.
    • Image Segmentation: Isolating specific regions or objects within an image for further analysis.
    • Image Compression: Reducing the storage space required to store or transmit the image, without losing important information.
    • Image Representation and Description: Representing images in a format suitable for computer processing, and capturing relevant attributes of the image or features in an image
    • Image Recognition: Determining what an image displays—this is using AI.

    Image Types

    • Binary Images: Black and white.
    • Grayscale Images: Shades of gray represent intensity.
    • Color Images: Three components (Red, Green, Blue) Multispectral images; multiple channels or spectral bands representing images in multiple wavelengths of light.
    • Image formats: includes formats like portable pixmap (PPM) and Bitmap (BMP)

    Spatial and Gray Level Resolution

    • Spatial Resolution: Smallest discernible details in an image, usually measured in number of pixels per unit area.
    • Gray Level Resolution: Smallest discernible change in gray levels; represented by the number of bits needed to represent the individual intensities.
