grachale / convolution_image

The implementation of a function that takes an image (RGB or gray one) and a filter (kernel) and applies a convolution between them.

Convolution Image Processing Method

Overview

This repository introduces a versatile method for implementing convolution operations between images and filters. The method supports 2D filters of any dimension and seamlessly handles both grayscale and RGB images. In the case of RGB images, the filter is applied independently to each channel. The method ensures robust handling of pixels outside the image boundary by filling them with zeros during convolution. It is assumed that the kernels used are square.

Examples of usage

from filtering.filtering import apply_filter
from filtering.helpers import *

image = read_image('tests/lenna.png')
display_image(image)

for filter_name, kernel in filters.items():
    print(filter_name)
    display_image(apply_filter(image, kernel))
