  1. Spatial Processes and Image Analysis Yassir Moudden & Sandrine Pires CEA/DAPNIA/SEDI-SAP • Lectures : • Basic models and tools in signal and image processing. • Multiscale transforms : wavelets, ridgelets, curvelets, etc. • Multiresolution analysis and wavelet bases. • Noise modeling and image restoration. • Problems and methods in multispectral data analysis.

  2. Basic models and tools in signal and image processing Outline : • Different types of images • Sampling and quantification • Fourier transform, Power spectrum • Linear Filtering, convolution • Non-linear operators mathematical morphology • Statistical properties of images

  3. Signals, Images, etc. Quantitative data Organized in time or space

  4. Different types of signals and images (1) • Continuous or Discrete index. • Continuous or Quantized values. • Finite energy, finite power, etc. Computer processing requires finite energy, discrete, quantized data.

  5. Different types of signals and images (2) • Signals and images grouped in terms of regularity properties : • Continuous and global order of differentiability • Local regularity • Fractal dimension • Statistical properties : • Marginal distributions, moments, etc. • Coherence, correlations and non linear dependencies • Stationarity Different formal environment for handling indexed data sets.

  6. Periodic signals and images • Fourier series expansion : where : • Plancherel-Parceval formula :

  7. Signals and images as energy distributions in time or space … • Energy : • Localization : • Spread : • More detailed characterization : higher order moments of the energy distribuition.

  8. … and in Fourier space : • Fourier transform : • Parceval : • Localization : • Spread : • Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle :

  9. A few properties of the Fourier transform • examples : (Poisson Sommation Formula)

  10. Sampling : from continuous to discrete time (1) • Ideal sampling : multiplication by a Dirac comb with rate Fs = 1/T. • Properties : • Linear oprator. • Not shift invariant.. • Shannon-Nyquist sampling theorem : Given a uniform sampling rate of Fs = 1/T, the highest frequency that can be unambiguously represented is Fs/2. • Reconstruction (interpolation) formula : where

  11. Sampling : from continuous to discrete time (2) • Sampling in time “periodizes” in frequency space resulting in aliasing. In higher dimensions, separable sampling schemes are most commonly used. But there are other non trivial possibilities.

  12. Linear operators - Filtering • Simplest possible operators are linear. • Shift invariant linear operators = convolutive systems : • Harmonic signals are eigenvectors of linear filters : with

  13. Example (1) : low pass spatial filter • Used for smoothing (removal of small details prior to large object extraction, bridging small gaps in lines) and noise reduction. • Low-pass (smoothing) spatial filtering • Neighborhood averaging • Results in spatial blurring

  14. Example (2) : median filter (non-linear) • Replace the current pixel value by the median pixel value in a given neighborhood. • Achieves effective noise supression. • Preserves the sharpness of real boundaries.

  15. Mathematical morphology • Two basic non-linear operators: • Dilation • Erosion • Several composite operators : • Closing • Opening • Conditionnal closing, etc. • A strucutring element is used in each of these operations:

  16. Dilation • Principle : takes the binary image B, places the origin of structuring element S over each pixel of value 1, and ORs the structuring element S into the output image at the corresponding position. • It is typically applied to binary image, but there are versions that work on gray scale image. • The basic effect of the operator on a binary image is to gradually enlarge the boundaries of regions of foreground pixels (i.e. white pixels, typically). • Thus areas of foreground pixels grow in size while holes within those regions become smaller. example : dilation using a 3 by 3 square structuring element for gap bridging.

  17. Erosion • Principle : takes the binary image B, places the origin of structuring element S over each pixel of value 1, and ANDs the structuring element S into the output image at the corresponding position. • It is typically applied to binary image, but there are versions that work on gray scale image. • The basic effect of the operator on a binary image is to gradually eliminate small objects. origin 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 erode S B B S

  18. Closing and opening • Closing is a dilation followed by an erosion (with the same structuring element). Closing also produces the smoothing of sections of contours but fuses narrow breaks, fills gaps in the contour and eliminates small holes. • Opening is an erosion followed by dilation (with the same structuring element). Opening smoothes the contours of objects, breaks narrow isthmuses and eliminates thin protrusions. Effect of closing using a 3 by 3 square structuring element

  19. Closing and opening • Closing is a dilation followed by an erosion (with the same structuring element). Closing also produces the smoothing of sections of contours but fuses narrow breaks, fills gaps in the contour and eliminates small holes. • Opening is an erosion followed by dilation (with the same structuring element). Opening smoothes the contours of objects, breaks narrow isthmuses and eliminates thin protrusions.

  20. Statistical signal and image processing • Another way to build classes of signal and image data. • Doesn’t mean the signal or image data are stochastic. • Means that our incomplete prior knowledge of what is noise and what is information requires a probabilistic framework for bayesian inference or maximum likelihood estimation. • Many algorithms for image denoising, restoration etc. are in this general framework : MEM, Wiener, shrinkage, detection. • Prior probabilities express our knowledge of noise and signal. NOISE = NOT STRUCTURED SIGNAL = STRUCTURED

  21. Statistical properties of signals and images • A stochastic process/field is completely defined by its probability law • Simplest model considers IID processes, isotropic, stationary • How to account for coherent behaviour of neighboring (or not) samples or pixels, in a generic way? • Different priors for differents classes of images. • Gibbs-Markov fields • New representations of structured image data.

  22. Gibbs-Markov field models for images • The probability distribution of the value of pixel s does not depend on all the other pixels but only on those pixels in the considered neighborhood : sort range local interactions. • example : Monte-Carlo simulations of an Ising model for different values of coupling.
