Digital Image Processing

and Analysis

Farnaz Majidzadeh 1
General information

• Interactive course: please feel free to interrupt if necessary


• Our aim: To introduce some of the key concepts and techniques of modern image
processing and analysis and provide a framework within which these concepts can be
understood by series of exercises and lab sessions.

2
Course objectives

• To introduce the fundamentals of Digital Image Processing


• To understand the techniques of processing and analysis images from their acquisition
• Each lecture accompanied with the exercises and/or lab sessions using Matlab/python
• In the end of all lectures starting with lab sessions using Python/Matlab focused on
precise applications

3
Image Processing applications

Image Processing with numerous applications which addresses:

• Military, satellite imaging, astronomy


• Machine vision, line productions, robotics
• Medicine, science
• television, film
• digital photography, internet
• …

1. A face
2. A man
3. A neutral face
4. Marlon Brando
5. An actor

• Everywhere the “eyes” can be replaced by the camera and where the “intelligence” can
result in a computer program
• In particular, it covers: analysis, manipulation, storage and display of digital images.

Levels of computation

We can classify the different methods in:


• Low-level Digital Image Processing involve primitive operations such as :
• Image filtering
• Contrast enhancement
• Image sharpening
In this level both its inputs and outputs are images

9
Levels of computation

• Mid-level Digital Image analysis involve tasks such as segmentation and description of
the objects:
• Point detectors
• Segmentation
• Shape descriptors
• …
In this level, the inputs are generally images but outputs are attributes extracted from those
images.

10
Levels of computation

• High-level Digital Image understanding involve “making sense” of a set of recognized


objects
• Pattern recognition
• Performing of cognitive functions
• …
In this level, at the end we make a decision based on the application or problem.

• Our goal is to cover as far as possible image processing tools normally required in order
to arrive at a viable system implementation.
• for each application, different solutions are possible
• to know classical methods, from an implementation and an evaluation point of view,
to improve their use.
