What is Digital Image Processing?

✓ The aim of digital image processing is to improve the quality


of image and subsequently to perform features extraction and
classification.
✓ It is effectively used in computer vision, medical imaging, meteorology,
astronomy.

Image
Visual representation of a real-life object (a person or any other object) in a
two-dimensional form is called an image. An image is nothing but a collection
of pixels in different color spaces.
Pixels
Pixels are subsamples of an image that, when get combined, give us the
complete image.
Image resolution
 Image resolution is the number of pixels present in an image. The greater
the number of pixels, the better quality.
 Image resolutions are described, for example, as 320 × 240, 640 × 480,
800 × 600, 1024 × 768, and so on.

Image Interpolation:
Process of using known data to estimate unknown values. It is also called as
resampling.

STEPS IN DIP
Image Acquisition:
The image is captured by a sensor (eg. Camera), and digitized if the output of
the camera or sensor is not already in digital form, using analogue-to-digital
convertor.
Image Enhancement
The process of manipulating an image so that the result is more suitable than
the original for specific applications. The idea behind enhancement techniques
is to bring out details that are hidden.
Image Restoration
Improving the appearance of an image. Tend to be mathematical or
probabilistic models.
Colour Image Processing
Use the colour of the image to extract features of interest in an image.
Wavelets
Are the foundation of representing images in various degrees of resolution. It is
used for image data compression.
Compression
Techniques for reducing the storage required to save an image or the
bandwidth required to transmit it.
Morphological Processing
Tools for extracting image components that are useful in the representation
and description of shape.
Image Segmentation
Segmentation procedures partition an image into its constituent parts or
objects.
Recognition and Interpretation
Recognition: the process that assigns label to an object based on the
information provided by its description.
PPI & DPI
The units for measuring image resolution are PPI “pixels per inch”, DPI “ inch ”
“dots per inch.” dots per.
Bitmap Image
Bitmap is a binary image in which each pixel has one of two numbers: either a
zero or a one. They represent black or white and are often used for storing
images efficiently.
Lossless and lossy Compression:

Lossless Compression:

• Lossless compression is a method of reducing the size of a file without


losing any data or quality.
• It achieves compression by identifying and eliminating redundancy
within the data.
• When the compressed file is decompressed, it is identical to the original
file.
• Lossless compression is commonly used for text files, executable files,
and other data where preserving every detail is important.
• Ex: PNG

Lossy Compression:

• Lossy compression is a method of reducing the size of a file by removing


unnecessary or less important information.
• Lossy compression is often used for multimedia files like images, audio,
and video, where a slight loss in quality may not be noticeable or is
acceptable.
• Ex: MP3

Vector images:

➢ Vector images use less memory space and have a smaller file size (.svg)
as compared to bitmaps.
➢ Vector images cannot be used for photorealistic images.
➢ Vector images require a plug-in for Web- based display.

Dithering:
Dithering is a process whereby the color value of each pixel is changed to the
closest matching color value in the target palette.
This is done using a mathematical algorithm.
Image file format:

An image file format refers to the structure and organization of data within a file
that represents an image.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group):

• JPEG is a widely used image format for photographs and complex


images.
• It uses lossy compression, which means some quality may be lost when
the image is compressed.

PNG (Portable Network Graphics):

• PNG is a popular lossless image format for web graphics and images with
transparency.

GIF (Graphics Interchange Format):

• GIF is a format commonly used for simple animations and low-color


images.
• It supports animation and transparency but is limited to 256 colors.
• GIF files use lossless compression

TIFF (Tagged Image File Format):

• TIFF is a versatile image format used in professional environments, such


as photography, printing, and publishing.
• It supports lossless compression and multiple layers.

RAW:

• RAW is not exactly a standard file format but rather a term used for
uncompressed image data directly from a digital camera's sensor.
• RAW files contain unprocessed data captured by the camera, allowing for
greater flexibility

Color Spaces:

The organization of the colors of in an image in a specific format is called color


space.

The way in which a color is represented is called a color model.


RGB:

The RGB color space, red, green, and blue are mixed in different ways to make
different color combinations.

XYZ:

Using XYZ, we can encode all the colors that exist in the real world. This color
space is called XYZ because it extrapolates RGB colors in three dimensions: x, y,
and z.

HSV/HSL:

HSV/HSL is an alternative representation of the RGB color space.

It consists of the following components:

• Hue

• Saturation

• Value

• Lightness

LCH:

The LCH is similar to the LAB color space, but instead of using cylindrical
coordinates, it uses rectangular coordinates.
