Digital Image Processing (Assignment 2)
1. Explain the power law (gamma) intensity transformation. Explain its advantages over log
transformation
2. What is pseudo coloring? Explain pseudo coloring of grayscale image.
3. What is histogram? Explain the histogram equalization algorithm.
4. Explain how laplacian of Gaussian can be used for image enhancement?
5. What is a color space? Discuss in brief about RGB, YIQ and HIS models for color image.
Also explain the applications of these color models.
6. Explain the terms false coloring and pseudo coloring. What are the various pseudo
coloring techniques used for image enhancement?
7. Answer the following related to histogram of an image
i). If all the pixels are shuffled, will there be any change in the histogram. Justify your
answer.
ii). Why does histogram equalization (discrete histogram equalization) not produce a
perfect flat histogram.
iii). Can two different images have same histogram? Justify your answer.
iV). Two images have same histogram. Which of the following property must they have
in common?
i). same total power
ii). Same interpixel covariance function
8. Explain the following concepts in image enhancement, with appropriate applications
i). Graylevel slicing ii). High boost filtering.
9. Explain in details frequency Domain smoothing and sharpening filters.
10. Briefly explain following Image Enhancement methods,indicating their typical
application areas.
(i)Contrast Stretching (ii)Median Filtering (iii)Unsharp masking
11. Explain the meaning of lower spatial frequencies and higher spatial frequencies in
the image. What are techniques for filtering it?
12. Explain the meaning of terms Gray resolution and Spatial resolution in the image
digitization.Illustrate the effect on image quality by reducing the spatial
resolution.The image intensity function is given by
f ( x , y )=A+Acosπ(3x+4y)
Determine the optimum size of pixels for proper image digitization.
