Digital Image Processing Questions

Multiple choice

Which sharpening technique is suitable for underwater images with significant noise or grain, such as images taken in low-light conditions?

  1. Unsharp Mask

  2. High-pass filter

  3. Median filter

  4. Gaussian blur
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Median filter is a suitable sharpening technique for underwater images with significant noise or grain, such as images taken in low-light conditions. It helps reduce noise and grain while preserving edges and details, resulting in a cleaner and sharper image.

Multiple choice

Which of the following is not a type of noise reduction filter in Adobe Photoshop?

  1. Median filter

  2. Gaussian blur filter

  3. Dust and scratches filter

  4. Despeckle filter
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The Dust and scratches filter is not a noise reduction filter, but rather a filter used to remove dust and scratches from images.

Multiple choice

What is the most important thing to remember when using noise reduction software?

  1. Use the software sparingly.

  2. Apply the software to the entire image.

  3. Use the software only on areas of the image with noise.

  4. None of the above.

  1. Image Denoising

  2. Image Enhancement

  3. Image Restoration

  4. Image Segmentation
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Image denoising is the process of removing noise from an image while preserving the important features and details.

Multiple choice

Which of the following is a common image restoration technique used to remove blur from an image?

  1. Wiener Filter

  2. Median Filter

  3. Gaussian Filter

  4. Unsharp Masking
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The Wiener filter is a linear filter used for image restoration that aims to minimize the mean square error between the restored image and the original image.
