Chapter 1Introduction 國立雲林科技大學 資訊工程研究所 張傳育(Chuan-Yu Chang ) 博士 Office: ES 709 TEL: 05-5342601 ext. 4337 E-mail: chuanyu@yuntech.edu.tw
Introduction • The Object of this chapter • defined the scope of image processing • Give a historical perspective • Briefly discuss the principal approaches • The components contained in a general purpose image processing
What is digital image processing? • What is digital image processing? • An image may be defined as a 2D function f(x,y)wherex, y: spatial coordinatesamplitude of f(x,y) is called the intensity or gray level • Digital image • Digital image processing • Processing digital images by means of a digital computer. • The element of a digital image • Picture elements, image elements, pixel
What is digital image processing? (cont.) • Three types computerized processes: • Low level • Basic operations such as noise reduction, contrast enhancement, and image sharpening. • Mid-level • Segmentation, classification • High-level • Understand the meaning of the recognized objects.
The origins of Digital Image Processing • Historical Perspective • 1920 • Bartlane cable picture transmission system • Coded tape by a telegraph printer with special type faces • 5 gray levels • 1921 • Tape punched
The origins of Digital Image Processing (cont.) • 1929 • 15 gray level
The origins of Digital Image Processing (cont.) • A series of key advances that led to computers powerful enough to be used for digital image processing: • The invention of the transistor by Bell Lab. In 1948 • The development of the high-level programming languages in the 1950s and 1960s. • The invention of the IC at Texas Instruments in 1958. • The development of OS in the early 1960s. • The development of the mP by Intel in the early 1970s. • Introduction by IBM of the PC in 1981. • Progressive miniaturization of components.
The origins of Digital Image Processing (cont.) • The first computer powerful enough to carry out meaningful image processing tasks appeared in the early 1960s. • 1964 • First picture of the moon • By spacecraft Ranger 7 • July 31, 1964 at 9:09 A.M
The origins of Digital Image Processing (cont.) • The late 1960s and early 1970s digital image processing techniques began to be used in medical imaging, remote Earth resource observations, and astronomy. • The invention in the early 1970s of computerized tomography (CT) in one of the most events in the application of image processing in medical diagnosis. • CT was invented by Godfrey N. Hounsfield and Allan M. Cormack, who shared the 1979 Nobel prize.
