Exercise

Resampling

Images can be collected in a variety of shapes and sizes. Resampling is a useful tool when these shapes need to be made consistent. Two common applications are:

  • Downsampling: combining pixel data to decrease size
  • Upsampling: distributing pixel data to increase size

For this exercise, transform and then resample the brain image (im) to see how it affects image shape.

  • Shift im 20 pixels left and 20 pixels up, i.e. (-20, -20). Then, rotate it 35 degrees downward. Remember to specify a value for reshape.
  • Use ndi.zoom() to downsample the image from (256, 256) to (64, 64).
  • Use ndi.zoom() to upsample the image from (256, 256) to (1024, 1024).
  • Plot the resampled images.
