Chapter1 Introduction One picture is worth more than ten thousand words – Anonymous. Several objectives about this chapter. define the scope of the field that we call image processing; Give a historical perspective of the origins of this field; Give an idea of the state of the art in image processing by examining some of the principal areas in which it is applied; Discuss briefly the principal approaches used in digital image processing; Give an overview of the components contained in a typical, general-goal image processing system; Provide direction to the books and other literature where image processing work normally is reported. 1.1 What is digital image processing (DIP) 1.2 A historical perspective of the origins about DIP 1.3 Examples of fields that use DIP 1.3.1 imaging in the EM energy spectrum 1.3.2 other imaging modalities 1.4 fundamental steps in DIP 1.5 components of an image processing system 1.6 reference and further reading  School of Info-Physics and Geomatics Engineering, CSU * *  信息与物理工程学院 中南大学 认识自己难，难于上青天 医学图像处理 Medical Image Processing Textbook: Digital image processing (second edition, written by R.C.Gonzalez) 医学图像处理与分析，罗述谦等著，科学出版社，2003 Some relevant definitions of an image: An image may be defined as a two-dimensional function, f(x,y), where x and y are spatial coordinates, and the amplitude of f at any point is called the intensity or gray level of the image at that point. When x, y and f are all finite, discrete quantities, we call the image a digital image. A digital image is composed of a finite number of elements, each of which is referred to as a picture element, image element, pel, and pixel. Vision of the human is limited to the visual band of electromagnetic (EM) spectrum, but imaging machines can operate on all images generated by sources that include the entire EM spectrum, ultra-sound, electron microscopy and computer-generated images. 2. The difference between DIP and computer vision The ultimate goa
