Misc... • Course website: TBA… • To be added to course mailing-list: send email to Lena <yelenag@wisdom.weizmann.ac.il> • Other recommended courses (for credit): - Basic Topics (I & II) !!! • Advanced Scientific Computation • Numerical Analysis • Vision & Robotics Seminar (not for credit): Thursdays at 12:00-13:00 (Ziskind 1) send email <leah@wisdom…>ask to be added to “seminar13”mailing list

  3. Applications: - Manufacturing and inspection; QA - Robot navigation - Autonomous vehicles - Guiding tools for blind - Security and monitoring - Object/face recognition; OCR. - Medical Applications - Visualization; NVS - Visual communication - Digital libraries and video search - Video manipulation and editing • How is an image formed? (geometry and photometry) • How is it represented? • What kind of operations can we apply to images? • What do images tell us about the world? (analysis & interpretation)

  5. Digital Images World Camera Digitizer Digital Image Image Formation: (i) What determines where the image of a 3D point appears on the 2D image? (ii) What determines how bright that image point is? (iii) How is a digital image represented? (iv) Some simple operations on 2D images? today

  13. Continuous probability density function: The Image Histogram Occurrence (# of pixels) Gray Level Histogram = The gray-level distribution: H(k) = #pixels with gray-level k Normalized histogram: Hnorm(k)=H(k)/N (N = # pixels in the image)

  19. Histogram Specification Transforms an image so that its histogram matches that of another image (e.g., for comparing two images of the same scene acquired under different lighting condition) Aa Ab k k

  20. Image Enhancement 1) Gray value (histogram) Domain 2) Spatial Domain 3) Frequency Domain - Histogram stretching - Histogram equalization - Histogram specification - Gamma correction etc... noisy image(salt & pepper noise)

  21. g(x,y) = 1/M S f(n,m) (n,m) inS Spatial Operations Replace center pixel with average/median gray level: (averaging mask; weighted mask; median filter…) Examples of neighborhoods S: 3 x 3 5 x 5 S = neighborhood of pixel (x,y) M = number of pixels in neighborhood S e.g.,

  24. Other spatial filters Are strong brightness variations always noise…?

  25. Edge Detection

  26. Edge Types Line Edge gray value x edge edge Step Edge gray value x edge edge

  27. Edge Detection Image Vertical edges Horizontal edges
