Ans. Certainly! The point-to-point transformation, thresholding, and histogram equalization are
fundamental image processing techniques that can be implemented using various programming
languages and libraries. I'll provide examples using Python and the OpenCV library.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
plt.show()
```
Replace 'path/to/your/image.jpg' with the actual path to your image file. This example adjusts the
contrast and brightness using the point-to-point transformation.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
image = cv2.imread('path/to/your/image.jpg', cv2.IMREAD_GRAYSCALE)
# Apply thresholding
plt.plot(hist)
plt.show()
plt.show()
```
Replace 'path/to/your/image.jpg' with the actual path to your image file. This example applies a simple
binary thresholding technique.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
equalized_image = cv2.equalizeHist(image)
plt.show()
```
Replace 'path/to/your/image.jpg' with the actual path to your image file. This example applies histogram
equalization to enhance the contrast of the image.
These examples use the OpenCV library for image processing. Ensure you have OpenCV installed:
```bash
```
Feel free to adjust the parameters and explore more sophisticated image processing techniques based
on your specific needs.
2. Geometric transformations. This experiment shows image rotation, scaling, and translation. Two-
dimensional Fourier transform.
Ans. Certainly! Geometric transformations, including rotation, scaling, and translation, are common
operations in image processing. Additionally, the two-dimensional Fourier transform is a powerful tool
for analyzing the frequency components of an image. I'll provide examples using Python and the OpenCV
library.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
image = cv2.imread('path/to/your/image.jpg')
# Rotation
# Scaling
scaling_factor = 1.5
# Translation
```
Replace 'path/to/your/image.jpg' with the actual path to your image file. This example demonstrates
rotation by 45 degrees, scaling by a factor of 1.5, and translation by (50, 30) pixels.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
fourier_transform = np.fft.fft2(image)
plt.show()
```
Replace 'path/to/your/image.jpg' with the actual path to your grayscale image file. This example
computes the 2D Fourier Transform and displays the original image and its magnitude spectrum.
These examples use the OpenCV library for image processing. Ensure you have OpenCV installed:
```bash
```
Feel free to modify the parameters and explore further geometric transformations and Fourier
transform-based analyses based on your specific requirements.
3. Linear filtering using convolution. Highly selective filters.
Ans. Linear filtering using convolution is a common technique in image processing. Highly selective filters
are filters designed to enhance or suppress specific features in an image. Let's implement linear filtering
with selective filters using Python and the OpenCV library.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
plt.show()
```
Replace 'path/to/your/image.jpg' with the actual path to your image file. This example uses a Gaussian
filter for blurring, which is a commonly used highly selective filter.
You can design different filters for various purposes, such as edge detection, sharpening, or smoothing,
based on the specific features you want to enhance or suppress.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
plt.show()
```
This example uses the Sobel filter for edge detection. You can adjust the filter parameters based on your
requirements.
Feel free to experiment with different filters and their parameters to achieve the desired effects.
4. Ideal filters in the frequency domain. Non Linear filtering using convolutional masks. Edge
detection. This experiment enables students to understand the concept of edge detectors
and their operation in noisy images.
Ans. Certainly! Edge detection is a crucial task in image processing, and ideal filters in the frequency
domain can be used for this purpose. Additionally, non-linear filtering using convolutional masks can
enhance the results, especially in the presence of noise. I'll provide examples using Python and the
OpenCV library.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
fourier_transform = np.fft.fft2(image)
frequencies = np.fft.fftshift(fourier_transform)
filtered_image_high_pass = np.fft.ifft2(np.fft.ifftshift(frequencies_high_pass)).real
plt.show()
```
Replace 'path/to/your/image.jpg' with the actual path to your image file. This example demonstrates the
application of an ideal high-pass filter in the frequency domain for edge enhancement.
```python
import cv2
import numpy as np
# Load an image
[0, 1, 0]])
plt.show()
```
This example applies a Laplacian mask using convolution for edge detection. You can experiment with
other non-linear filters such as the Sobel operator, Prewitt operator, etc.
Feel free to adjust parameters, experiment with different masks, and explore more non-linear filters to
understand their effects on edge detection in noisy images.
