Image Processing Overview

Image processing is a technique that digitizes image data to create enhanced images that are more useful to humans or able to perform interpretation tasks usually done by humans. It involves several steps: image acquisition, preprocessing, segmentation, representation, description, recognition, and interpretation. Knowledge about the problem domain is encoded in the system. Image acquisition and calibration factors are discussed. Images are generated from illumination sources reflecting or absorbing energy. Preprocessing improves images by suppressing distortions or enhancing important features. Segmentation subdivides images into regions based on intensity discontinuities or similarities. Description converts data into a form for computer processing. Recognition extracts quantitative features for differentiation. Interpretation assigns labels based on descriptors. Image processing has applications in fields like medicine,

Image

Knowledge about a problem domain is coded into an image processing system in the form of a knowledge database.

discusses

various factors and techniques involved with the acquisition and calibration of images. are generated by the combination of an illumination source and the reflection or absorption of energy from that source by the elements of the scene being imaged.

Images

to improve the image data that suppresses unwanted distortions or enhances some image features important for further processing. Four categories of image pre-processing methods:
pixel brightness transformations geometric transformations pre-processing methods that use a local neighborhood of

the processed pixel image restoration that requires knowledge about the entire image.

Segmentation of the image is to subdivide a image into its constituent regions or objects. Image segmentation algorithms generally are based on one of two basic properties of intensity values: discontinuity and similarity. Discontinuity is to partition the image based on abrupt changes in intensity, such as edges of the image. Similarity is to partition the image into regions that are similar according to set of predefined criteria.

to

convert the input data to a form suitable for computer processing.

to

extract features that result in some quantitative information of interest or features that are basic for differentiating one class of objects from another.

to

assign a label to an object based on the information provided by its descriptors. identification of objects in an image with image processing techniques such as noise removal, followed by (low-level) feature extraction to locate lines, regions and possibly areas with certain textures.

The

Extraction

of qualitative and quantitative information in the form of a map, about the shape, location, structure, function, quality, condition, relationship of and between objects by using human knowledge.
