87#IMAGE PROCESSING & COMPRESSION TECHNIQUES



ABSTRACT


An image defined in the "real world" is considered to be a function of two real variables say x,y.

Before going to processing an image, it is converted into a digital form. Digitization includes sampling of image and quantization of sampled values.

After converting the image into bit information, processing is performed.

This processing technique may be,

* Image enhancement

* Image reconstruction

* Image compression

Image enhancement refers to accentuation, or sharpening, of image features such as boundaries.

Image restoration is concerned with filtering the observed image to minimize the effect of degradations.

Image compression is concerned with minimizing the no of bits required to represent an image.

Text compression – CCITT GROUP3 & GROUP4

Still image compression – JPEG

Video image compression -MPEG
