1 Overview
The goal of this assignment is to write basic image processing functions and
assemble them into a simple data augmentation pipeline. These functions will
be used as the front-end for machine learning models. The assignment will cover
image resizing, cropping, color manipulation and rotation.
2 Setup
• Install Anaconda. We recommend using Conda to manage your packages.
• The following packages are needed: OpenCV3, Numpy, Pillow, Matplotlib,
Jupyter. And you are in charge of installing them.
• Run the notebook using:
jupyter notebook ./code/proj1.ipynb
• You will need to fill in the missing code in:
./code/student code.py
• Generate the submission once you’ve finished the project using:
python zip submission.py
3 Details
This project is intended to familiarize you with Python and image processing.
If you do not know Python or image processing, please refer to the resources in
our tutorial.
Image Resizing: Re-sampling is one of the fundamental operations in image
processing. You can find many implementations in different packages, yet resampling can still be a bit tricky. We have provide you a helper function for
resizing an image (./code/utils/image resize). And you will be tasked to fill in
the missing code in class Scale. This class resizes an input image by matching
1
its shortest side to a pre-specified size. You must use the provided image resize
function. More details can be found in the comments.
Image Cropping: Cropping selects regions within an image. It is simple and
quite useful. You will need to fill in the code in the class RandomSizedCrop.
This class randomly crops a region, whose size is distributed evenly between a
given range of the image area with aspect ratio constrained to a pre-specified
interval. This region is finally resized to a fixed size. This technique is described
in [2] and has been widely used for training deep networks. We recommend using Numpy for cropping the region and using our provided image resize function
to resize the region. Again, more details can be found in the comments.
Color Jitters: A small perturbation in the color space can lead to images
with drastically different pixel values yet are still perceptually realistic. You
are asked to implement a simple version of color jitters in the class RandomColor. Concretely, this class samples α ∈ [1 − r, 1 + r] with r as a pre-specified
ratio between [0, 1]. This α is then multiplied to a color channel. This is done
independently for each color channel. The technique is described in multiple
papers, e.g., [1]. See the comments for more details.
Rotation: 2D image rotation (around the center of the image) is a simple
form of parametric warping. In PIL, you can simply rotate an image using the
function Image.rotate. However, this function will create empty black pixels in
the result image. See an example in Figure 1. Oftentimes, we want to avoid
these black pixels. This can be done by cropping the result image. While there
are many different ways of cropping, we are interested in finding a rectangular
region with the maximum area that does not contain a single empty pixel. And
you will need to implement this in class RandomRotate. Specifically, this
Figure 1: How can you find the rectangular region with the max area without
an empty pixel after an arbitrary 2D rotation?
class samples a rotation angel (in degrees) from a given interval, rotates the
image accordingly and crops the region with the maximum area. You will find
more details in the code. Hints: you might want to check cv2.warpAffine.
2
Composition of Image Transforms: We have provided sample implementation in helper code that composes a series of transforms and applies them to
an input image. See class Compose for the details. Does the order of the
transforms matter? And why?
4 Writeup
For this assignment, and all other assignments, you must submit a project report
in PDF. If an assignment is team based, every team member should send the
same copy of the report. Please clearly identify the contribution of all the team
members. In the report you will describe your algorithm and any decisions
you made to write your algorithm a particular way. Then you will show and
discuss the results of your algorithm. In the case of this project, show the results
of your transformed images (the test script saves such images already). Also,
discuss anything extra you did. Feel free to add any other information you feel
is relevant. A good writeup doesn’t just show results, it tries to draw some
conclusions from your experiments.
5 Handing in
This is very important as you will lose points if you do not follow instructions.
Every time after the first that you do not follow instructions, you will lose 5%.
The folder you hand in must contain the following:
• code/ – directory containing all your code for this assignment
• writeup/ – directory containing your report for this assignment.
• results/ – directory containing your results (generated by the notebook)
Do not use absolute paths in your code (e.g. /user/classes/proj1).
Your code will break if you use absolute paths and you will lose points because
of it. Simply use relative paths as the starter code already does. Do not turn in
the /data/ folder unless you have added new data. Hand in your project as a zip
file through Canvas. You can create this zip file using python zip submission.py.
