Digital Image Processing Questions

Multiple choice

What is the main limitation of closed-form matting algorithms?

  1. They can only handle images with simple backgrounds.

  2. They are sensitive to noise in the image.

  3. They require user interaction to provide a trimap.

  4. They cannot handle images with multiple foreground objects.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Closed-form matting algorithms generally assume that the background is locally smooth and that there is a clear separation between the foreground and background. They may struggle to produce accurate alpha mattes for images with complex or textured backgrounds.

Multiple choice

Which of the following closed-form matting algorithms utilizes a Gaussian mixture model to represent the background?

  1. Bayesian Matting

  2. Poisson Matting

  3. Closed-Form Matting

  4. Random Walk Matting
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Bayesian Matting is a closed-form matting algorithm that employs a Gaussian mixture model to represent the background color distribution. It estimates the alpha matte by maximizing the posterior probability of the alpha matte given the observed image data.

Multiple choice

Which of the following closed-form matting algorithms is known for its ability to handle images with multiple foreground objects?

  1. Bayesian Matting

  2. Poisson Matting

  3. Closed-Form Matting

  4. Random Walk Matting
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Random Walk Matting is a closed-form matting algorithm that can handle images with multiple foreground objects. It utilizes a random walk process to propagate alpha values from known regions (e.g., foreground and background) to unknown regions, gradually refining the alpha matte.

Multiple choice

Which of the following closed-form matting algorithms is known for its robustness to noise and outliers in the image?

  1. Bayesian Matting

  2. Poisson Matting

  3. Closed-Form Matting

  4. Random Walk Matting
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Bayesian Matting is known for its robustness to noise and outliers in the image. It utilizes a probabilistic framework that allows for the incorporation of prior knowledge and regularization terms, making it less susceptible to the effects of noise and outliers.

Multiple choice

What is the primary limitation of Random Walk Matting?

  1. It is computationally expensive.

  2. It can only handle images with simple backgrounds.

  3. It requires user interaction to provide a trimap.

  4. It is sensitive to noise in the image.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Random Walk Matting is generally more computationally expensive compared to other closed-form matting algorithms. This is because it involves simulating a random walk process to propagate alpha values, which can be time-consuming for large images or images with complex structures.
