cv2.imwrite() method is the method of OpenCV that is used to save an image.

Ques 12. Which method of OpenCV is used to show the image?

cv2.imshow() method is the method of OpenCV that is used to show an image.

Ques 13. What are computer vision libraries?

OpenCV – Python, Java

Ques 14. What Is Image Translation And Scaling?

Image translation means reposition the image from one co-ordinate location to another along straight line path. Whereas, Scaling refers to alter the size of the object or image (ie) a co-ordinate system is scaled by a factor.

Ques 15. What Do You Meant By Shrinking Of Digital Images?

Shrinking may be viewed as under sampling. If an image is been shrinked by one half, we delete every row and column. To reduce possible aliasing effect, it is a good idea to blue an image slightly before shrinking it.

Ques 16. Explain Subjective Brightness And Brightness Adaptation.

Subjective brightness means intensity as preserved by the human visual system . Brightness adaptation means the human visual system can operate only from scotopic to glare limit. It cannot operate over the range simultaneously. It performs large variation by changes in its overall intensity.

Ques 17. How can we Increase the Quality of an Image?

– Recognition and Interpretation

Image enhancement process is purely dependent on the application where we need to use the enhanced image and the type of degradation in the image. Few solutions from my basic knowledge

– If image contain so much noises, apply filtering operations such as mean/median etc.

– If the image is looking too dark or too bright apply histogram equalization process to improve the contrast.

– If the image is blurred apply sharpening operations in the image.

Ques 18. What is CUDA?

CUDA is a parallel computing platform developed by Nvidia that is consists of its own GPU for general computing.

Ques 19. How to find threshold in images using OpenCV?

We can find the threshold of an image in OpenCV with the help of cv.threshold function.

Ques 20. What is Scharr Operator?

Scharr() Operator is an operator that is used to detect the second derivatives of an image in horizontal and vertical directions.

Ques 21. Enlist different types of filters available in OpenCV?

The different types of linear and non-linear filter that you can apply to a picture using OpenCV are, BaeColumn filter, Base filter, BaseRow filter, FilterEngine, Bilateral filter, AdaptiveBilateral Filter, Blur, BorderInterpolate, BoxFilter, BuildPyramid, copyMakeBorder, createBoxFilter, createDerivFilter, createGuassionFilter, createLinear filter, createMorphology filter, createSeparableLinear filter, dilate, erode, filter2D, GuassianBlur, getDerivKernels, getKernelType, getStructuringElement, medianBlur, morphologyEx, Laplacian, pyrDown, pyrUp, pyrMeanShiftFiltering, sepFilter2D, Smooth, Sobel, Scharr.

Ques 27. What Is Image Transform in OpenCV?

An image can be expanded in terms of a discrete set of basis arrays called basis images. Hence, these basis images can be generated by unitary matrices. An NxN image can be viewed as an N^2×1 vectors. It provides a set of coordinates or basis vectors for vector space.

Zooming may be viewed as over sampling. Zooming involves the creation of new pixel locations and the assignment of gray levels to those new locations.

Ques 29. What Is The Need For Transform in OpenCV?

The need for transform is most of the signals or images are time domain signal (ie) signals can be measured with a function of time. This representation is not always best. Any person of the mathematical transformations is applied to the signal or images to obtain further information from that signal. Particularly, for image processing.
