IAP 2010 Activity


Doing Twisted Things to Images: Spatial Image Transforms in MATLAB
Steve Eddins, Ph.D. The MathWorks, James Cain OEIT
Wed Jan 13, 10am-12:00pm, 4-237

No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Single session event

Spatial transforms can make thumbnail views, fix slanted horizon lines, align multiple images of a scene, or warp images in bizarre and creative ways. MATLAB and Image Processing Toolbox offer tools to do all these things and more.

In this session, you will learn the essential and practical concepts you need to understand and apply spatial image transforms. For example, where does a transformed image go? Why are spatial transforms implemented backwards? You'll find out how to align and overlay transformed images, define your own transforms, and troubleshoot when things go awry. You will see how to have a little fun with some oddball transforms, including polar-coordinate image twisting and randomized image melting.
