Contents

From [MAT-65-10-K-4] Foundations in Mathematical Image Processing:
  • Digital image (format, color spaces, sampling, quantization, basic task of image processing),
  • Basic Cluster and segmentation algorithms ( Mittel, K-means-Algorithms),
  • Intensity transformations (Gamma correction, histogram specification),
  • Filter (linear filter, bilateral filter, M-regularisator, in particular: median filter),
  • Fourier series and discrete Fourier Transform (Series convergence, DFT, FFT),
  • Multidimensional Fourier series (DFT, applications in image processing),
  • Continuous Fourier Transform,
  • Windowed Fourier Transform (Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle, Gabor Transform).

Competencies / intended learning achievements

Upon completion of this module, the students know the basic questions, concepts and methods of mathematical image processing. By concrete examples, they have gained a clear understanding of the concepts and the application of the methods. They understand the mathematical background required for the methods used (in particular: Intensity transformations, Linear and Nonlinear filters) and they are able to critically assess the possibilities and limitations of the use of these methods.

In addition, the students have learnt the basic problems and concepts of classical Fourier analysis with numerous practical applications. They have mastered the most important methods and will be able to apply them to selected tasks from image processing. They have understood the proofs presented in the lecture and are able to comprehend and explain them.

By completing the given exercises, the students have developed a skilled, precise and independent handling of the terms, propositions and techniques taught in the lecture. In addition, they have learnt how to apply these techniques to new problems, analyze them and develop solution strategies.
