 Digital Images

Digital Images are 2D or 3D matrices depending upon if they are greys cale or colour images . An entire image is
dis cretized into s mall units called pixels . Each pixel is identified by it’s row and column number. Each pixel in a grays cale
or black and white image has a s ingle value (Range 0~255) denoting the intens ity of the image at that pixel location.
Each pixel in a colour image has res pectively 3 values (Range 0~255) denoting the intens ities of Red, Blue and Green
channels .
The s ize of the image is generally denoted by the number of rows and columns .

Convolution vs Correlation

Convolution:

Correlation:

Convolution is basically flipping the kernel via X -axis and Y-axis and then performing a
correlation with the resultant kernel
