Lecture 2: Image Processing Flashcards
consists of the manipulation of images using digital computers
(identify)
Image processing
is a method to perform some operations on an image, in order to get an enhanced image or to extract some useful information from it.
(identify)
Image processing
It is a type of signal processing in which input is an image and output may be image or characteristics/features associated with that image.
(identify)
Image processing
is an image file format that’s defined by a pixel with one or more numbers associated with it. The number defines the location, size, or color of the pixels.

Gray-scale Images
Image Classifications
**Gray-scale Images*
In fact a ? color is one in which the red, green and blue components all have equal intensity in RGB space. Thus it’s only necessary to specify a single intensity value for each pixel, as opposed to the three intensities needed to specify each pixel in a full color image.

Second form: N/A (Not in PPT)
A picture element, containing the color or the hue and relative brightness of that point in the image.
