QUESTION 2:
Which of the following is (are) true regarding Gaussian Low Pass Filter?
Statement 1: Gaussian Low Pass Filter does not produce ringing effect.
Statement 2: Gaussian Low Pass Filter completely stopped all the frequency above the
cut off frequency.
a. Statement 1
b. Statement 2
c. Statement 1 and 2
d. None of the Statement
Correct Answer: a
Detailed Explanation: Only statement 1 is true. Gaussian LPF attenuate the frequency
above the cut off frequency but do not completely stop.

1 if D(u,v)  D0
a. H (u , v)  
0 if D(u,v)  D0

 D 2 ( u ,v ) / 2 Do2
b. H (u, v)  e

 D 2 ( u ,v ) / 2 Do2
c. H (u, v)  1  e

d. None of these

Correct Answer: c.
 D 2 ( u ,v ) / 2 Do2
Detailed Explanation: Gaussian low pass filter is given as H (u, v)  e . Using the
 D 2 ( u ,v ) / 2 Do2
relationship 𝐇𝐡𝐩𝐟 (𝐮, 𝐯) = 𝟏 − 𝐇𝐥𝐩𝐟 (𝐮, 𝐯), Gaussian high pass filter is given as H (u, v)  1  e

QUESTION 4:
In case of inverse filtering, if the cut off frequency is significantly high then which of the following
is true?
a. Restored image becomes blurry

b. Restored image close to original image

c. Noise in restored image dominates

d. None of these
Correct Answer: c.
Detailed Solution: The reconstructed image in inverse filtering is given as
N (u, v)
Fˆ (u, v)  F (u, v)  , where F (u, v) is original image, N (u, v) is noise and H (u, v) is the
H (u, v)
degradation function.
It is assumed the image is low frequency signal and noise is high frequency signal, now if cut off
N (u, v)
frequency is significantly high then becomes higher and Noise in restored image
H (u, v)
dominates

QUESTION 5:
Which of the following true regarding Butterworth Low Pass Filter.

Statement 1: If we increase the rank than it behaves more like an ideal low filter.

Statement 2: If we increase the rank than output exhibits ringing artifacts.

a. Statement 1
b. Statement 2
c. Both statement 1 and 2
d. None of the Statement is true.

Correct Answer: c

Detailed Explanation: Both the statement are true regarding Butterworth low pass filter.

QUESTION 6:

Which of the following filter does not produce ringing effect?

a. Ideal low pass filter

b. Gaussian Low Pass Filter
c. Low Pass Butterworth Filter of very high order
d. All of the above

Correct Answer: b.

Detailed Solution:

Since there is no abrupt change in frequency response of Gaussian low pass filter and low order
Butterworth filter, hence no ringing effect.

Hence option b is correct.

QUESTION 7:

Which of the following fact is true with respect to a low pass filter?
a. The smaller the cut off frequency of a filter results in increased blurring

b. The smaller the cut off frequency of a filter results in increased blurring

c. Blurring is independent of cutoff frequency.

d. Both a and b

Correct Answer: a.

Detailed Solution:

Higher the frequency content in an image lower will be the blurring. Therefore, for a low
pass filter, the narrower the frequency domain bandwidth, filter results in increased
blurring.

Hence option a is correct.

QUESTION 8:

In which of the following filter, the intensity at a particular point in the image, is a product of
two terms, one is the illumination term, other one is the reflectance term is assumed?

a. Homomorphic filter
b. Laplacian filter
c. High Boost filter
d. Gaussian filter

Correct Answer: a.

Detailed Solution:

In homomorphic filter, it is assumed that the intensity at a particular point in the image, is a product
of two terms, one is the illumination term, other one is the reflectance term.

Hence option a is correct.

QUESTION 9:

In which of the following method estimation of degradation function is required?

a. Image restoration

b. Image enhancement

c. Both a and b

d. None of the above

Correct Answer: a.

Detailed Solution:

In case of image enhancement or simple noise filtering, we do not make use of any of the
degradation model or we do not bother about what is the process which is degrading the image.
Whereas in case of image restoration, we talk about the degradation model, we try to estimate the
model that has degraded the image and using that model we apply the inverse process and try to
restore the image.

Hence option a is correct.

1
The following equation corresponds to a filter, H(u, v) = Do 2n
1+ [D(u,v)]

Where, n is a positive integer, Do is cut-off frequency, which of the following is true?

a. There is a ringing effect for higher value of n

b. There is no ringing effect for higher value of n

c. Ringing effect in independent of n

d. None of these

Correct Answer: a.

Detailed Solution:

Given filter characteristics represents Butterworth low pass filter. Higher order Butterworth
characteristics approaches to ideal low pass filter and there is abrupt change in frequency response,
hence ringing effect is observed.

Hence option a is correct.
