Introduction

Background (Fourier Series) Any function that periodically repeats itself can be
expressed as the sum of sines and cosines of different frequencies each multiplied by a different coefficient
This sum is known as Fourier Series It does not matter how complicated the function is;
as long as it is periodic and meet some mild conditions it can be represented by such as a sum
It was a revolutionary discovery

Introduction to DFT
• The Fourier Transform is an important image processing tool which is used to decompose an image into its sine and cosine components.
• The output of the transformation represents the image in the Fourier or frequency domain, while the input image is the spatial domain equivalent.
• In the Fourier domain image, each point represents a particular frequency contained in the spatial domain image.

Introduction to DFT
• The Fourier Transform is used in a wide range of applications, such as image analysis, image filtering, image reconstruction and image compression.
• The DFT is the sampled Fourier Transform and therefore does not contain all frequencies forming an image, but only a set of samples which is large enough to fully describe the spatial domain image
• The number of frequencies corresponds to the number of pixels in the spatial domain image, i.e. the image in the spatial and Fourier domain are of the same size.

Background (Fourier Transform) Even functions that are not periodic (but whose area under the
curve is finite) can be expressed as the integrals of sines and cosines multiplied by a weighing function
This is known as Fourier Transform A function expressed in either a Fourier Series or transform can be
reconstructed completely via an inverse process with no loss of information
This is one of the important characteristics of these representations because they allow us to work in the Fourier Domain and then return to the original domain of the function

Fourier Transform• ‘Fourier Transform’ transforms one function into
another domain , which is called the frequency domain representation of the original function
• The original function is often a function in the Time domain
• In image Processing the original function is in the Spatial Domain
• The term Fourier transform can refer to either the Frequency domain representation of a function or to the process/formula that "transforms" one function into the other.

Our Interest in Fourier Transform
• We will be dealing only with functions (images) of finite duration so we will be interested only in Fourier Transform

Image Restoration• In many applications (e.g., satellite imaging, medical
imaging, astronomical imaging, poor-quality family portraits) the imaging system introduces a slight distortion
• Image Restoration attempts to reconstruct or recover an image that has been degraded by using a priori knowledge of the degradation phenomenon.
• Restoration techniques try to model the degradation and then apply the inverse process in order to recover the original image.

Image Restoration
• Image restoration attempts to restore images that have been degraded– Identify the degradation process and attempt to reverse it
– Similar to image enhancement, but more objective

A Model of the Image Degradation/ Restoration Process
• The degradation process can be modeled as a degradation function H that, together with an additive noise term η(x,y) operates on an input image f(x,y) to produce a degraded image g(x,y)
