This lecture will cover:
Digital image definition
Digital image processing?
History of digital image processing
Key phases in digital image processing
Digital Image
A digital image represents 2-D image as a finite set of digital values, namely, pixels
Images taken from Gonzalez & Woods, Digital Image Processing (2002)
Digital Image? (cont…)
The value of I(x,y) at any point is gives the pixel value at that point of an image.

Digital Image? (cont…)
Pixel values typically characterize gray levels, colors, heights etc
Digitization is an approximation to a real scene

Common image formats include:
1 sample per point (B&W or Grayscale)
3 samples per point (Red, Green, and Blue)
4 samples per point (Red, Green, Blue, and “Alpha”, a.k.a. Opacity)
This course will focus on grey-scale images
Digital Image focusses on
Improvement of pictorial information for human perception
Processing of image data for storage, transmission and representation for machine awareness

First Level Input: Image Output: Image Examples: Noise removal, image enhancement
Second Level Input: Image Output: Qualities Examples: Object detection, recognition, segmentation
Third Level
Input: Qualities
Output: Understanding Examples: Scene
