Understanding Computer Vision Basics

Computer Vision is an AI field that allows computers to interpret images and videos like humans. Key tasks include image classification, localization, object detection, and instance segmentation. Images can be represented in grayscale or RGB formats, with pixels being the smallest units that make up these images.

COMPUTER VISION

Computer Vision is a field of AI that enables computers to see, identify, and


understand images and videos, and extract useful information from them
just like humans do.
Computer vision tasks
1. Image Classification-Assigning a label or category to an image from a
fixed set of categories.
2. Classification + Localization-combines classification (what the object is)
and localization (where it is in the image).
3. Object Detection-Find and draw boxes around objects.
4. Instance Segmentation-Find objects and color each pixel that belongs to
them.
Pixel-
• “pixel” comes from “picture element”. It is the smallest part of a digital
[Link] are usually square or round and are arranged in a grid.
• Each pixel shows a tiny part of the image.
Resolution
• The number of pixels in an image.
• Resolution is often written as width × height.
• 1 megapixel = 1 million pixels
Grayscale images
• Images that show only shades of gray—no colors.
• Black = darkest shade = pixel value 0.
• White = lightest shade = pixel value 255.
• Gray shades = values between 0 and 255.
• A grayscale image is stored as a 2D array of pixels.
RGB images
• Each RGB image has three separate channels: R, G, and B
• Each pixel in a color image has three values: one for Red, one for
Green, and one for Blue.
• Computers store RGB images as three 2D arrays (one for each
channel).
