10) Write a program to blur and smoothing an image

import cv2 // Import the cv2 module


image = cv2.imread('images.jpg')
blurred_image = cv2.GaussianBlur(image, (15, 15), 0)
cv2.imshow('Original Image', image)
cv2.imshow('Blurred Image', blurred_image)
cv2.waitKey(0)
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
Smoothing
• Smoothing in image processing refers to the process
of reducing noise or other unwanted artifacts in an
image while preserving important features and
structures.

• The goal of smoothing is to create a visually


appealing image that is easy to interpret and
analyze.
• Smoothing techniques use filters.
• Different filters used for smoothening are
1. Mean filter
2. Median filter
3. Bilateral filter

4. Gaussian Filter
Gaussian Blur
Syntax:
cv2. GaussianBlur(image, kernelsize, sigmaX )
Image
The image you need to blur
kernelsize
• This parameter specifies the size of the Gaussian kernel
• It should be a tuple (width, height) specifying the kernel
size.
• Both width and height should be odd and positive
numbers.
5 x 5 Kernel
sigmaX

• The Gaussian kernel standard deviation which is the


default set to 0.
blurred_image = cv2.GaussianBlur(image, (15, 15), 0)

cv2. GaussianBlur(image, kernelsize, sigmaX )


Image without noise Image with noise
waitKey()

• waitKey() function of Python OpenCV allows users to


display a window for given milliseconds or until any
key is pressed.

• If 0 is passed in the argument it waits till any key is


pressed.

cv2.waitKey(0)
cv2.destroyAllWindows()
• The function cv2.destroyAllWindows() is used in
OpenCV (cv2) to close all the OpenCV windows that
were created with cv2.imshow().
