What is MATLAB?
• MATLAB ➔Stands for MATrix LABoratory
• MATLAB Created by Cleve Moler @ Stanford
U. in 1970
• We use MATLAB because it Makes linear
algebra, numerical analysis and optimization a
lot easier.
• MATLAB you don’t need to declare any
variables, All you need to do is initialize them
and they are created
• MATLAB treats all variables as matrices
• Scalar – 1 x 1 matrix.
• Vector – 1 x N or N x 1 matrix
• MATLAB uses the Image Processing Toolbox
(IPT) - can be installed with MATLAB!
Images in MATLAB
• Binary images : {0,1}
• Intensity images : [0,1] or uint8, double etc.
• RGB images : m-by-n-by-3
Example of RGB image
Example of Binary & Gray image
• A digital image, I, is represented by a
uniformly spaced discrete points or pixels {p =
(r,c)}.
• Sampling as its name suggests can be defined as take samples, There are also
an infinite number of possible colors
• Quantization as its name suggest can be defined as dividing into quanta partitions,
so will reduce the total number of colors to a smaller amount
.

Some file format
• TIFF (Tagged-Image File Format)—A large file. It is used when a high resolution
photographic file is needed.
• PSD (Photoshop Document)—An Adobe Photoshop.
• EPS (Encapsulated PostScript)—if an image is saved as a Photoshop EPS file, it is a
large file similar to a TIFF file.
• JPG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)—A compressed file. It is used when a small
photographic file is needed (typically for the Web).
• PNG (Portable Network Graphics)—A small, limited-color file, used for on-screen
viewing , it has more color options than a GIF file.
• GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)—A small, limited-color file.
• BMP (Windows Bitmap)—A file specific to Windows with limited color options.
