Problem! • Noise is a problem, even in images! Gaussian Noise Salt and Pepper Noise
What to do? • Try to think of ways to remove the noise! Gaussian Noise Salt and Pepper Noise
Smoothing • The most obvious and easy way to remove the noise is by averaging. • We can average pixels of a specific neighborhood by convolution with an averaging filter.
Smoothing • Convolution is a simple mathematical operation.
Smoothing • Smoothing using 3x3 mean filter. Gaussian Noise Salt and Pepper Noise
Gaussian Filter • Gaussian filter is more natural!
Gaussian Filter • Gaussian mask with σ=1.
Gaussian Filter • Gaussian filter is more natural! Gaussian Noise Gaussian 5x5 Filter
Median Filter • Median filter operation.
Median Filter • Removing Salt and Pepper Noise using Median Filtering. Salt and Pepper Noise 3x3 Median Filter
Edge Detection • Finding the edges of images is a very useful tool. • How do we find the edges in images?
Edge Detection • Yes you’re right, derivatives!!
Edge Detection • We use image filtering to find edges. • There are many masks: Prewitt, Sobel, Roberts Roberts Sobel Prewitt
Edge Detection • The gradient magnitude and gradient angle can be calculated as follows:
