This is a workshop on Image processing by data carpentry we will use python, jupyter and scikit image for image processing.
the first concept I am discovering is the Morphometrics
-
In this part of the course I've been introduced to how an image is represented in colors, coordinates and pixels square.
-
Left hand coordinate system. with the origini in the upper left corner, x-axis running to the right, y-axis running down.
-
Scikit-image images are stored as multi-dimensional NumPy arrays. RGB
-
Depending on the camera or sensor, various useful pieces of information may be stored in an image file, in the image metadata.
Format | Compression | Metadata | Advantages | Disadvantages | BMP | None | None | Universally viewable, high quality| Large file sizes JPEG | Lossy | Yes | Universally viewable, smaller file size | Detail may be lost PNG | Lossless | Yes | Universally viewable, open standard, smaller file size | Metadata less flexible than TIFF, RGB only TIFF | None, lossy, or lossless | Yes | High quality or smaller file size | Not universally viewable
