The document is an introduction to a course on digital image processing. It discusses the origins and uses of digital image processing. The fundamental steps involve image sampling and quantization, and various image transforms including the Fourier transform, discrete cosine transform, and wavelet transform are introduced. Filtering in both the spatial and frequency domains is also covered, as well as techniques for image restoration, reconstruction, enhancement, and analysis.
The RGB color model uses red, green, and blue light to represent almost any color and is used in computer monitors and graphics. It uses Cartesian coordinates with black at (0,0,0) and white at (1,1,1). The HSV color model represents colors in terms of hue, saturation, and value and uses a hexacone coordinate system. Hue varies from red to magenta, saturation varies from unsaturated to fully saturated, and value represents brightness from dark to light. Converting between RGB and HSV involves calculating the hue angle, saturation distance, and value height for RGB and using different conversion formulas depending on the color sector for HSV to RGB.
This document outlines the units of study for a course in Digital Image Processing. It covers topics such as image fundamentals, transforms including Fourier, filters in both the spatial and frequency domains, image restoration and reconstruction, color image processing, wavelets and multi-resolution processing, image compression, morphological image processing, and image segmentation. References for further reading on digital image processing are also provided.
This document discusses various color models used in computer graphics including RGB, HSV, HSL, CMY, and CMYK. It explains the key components of each model such as hue, saturation, value, and how colors are represented. Common applications of different color models are also summarized such as RGB for computer displays and CMYK for printing. In addition, the concepts of dithering and half-toning techniques used to reproduce colors on devices are introduced.
