SUMMARY:EI2025 Short Course: Information metrics for optimizing Machine Vision systems
DESCRIPTION:Description: A new set of metrics based on information theory promises to be superior to traditional MTF (SFR or sharpness) and noise for predicting machine vision system performance. We will introduce the new information metrics\, which include Noise Equivalent Quanta (NEQ)\, camera information capacity\, Ideal Observer SNR (SNRi – for the quality of object detection)\, and Edge location standard deviation (Edge σ – for the quality of edge location). We will cover the background of the new measurements\, why they are more directly related to object and edge detection than traditional measurements\, how to conveniently obtain them (primarily from standard slanted edge test patterns)\, how to interpret them\, and how to design matched filters for optimum system performance. \nLevel: Intermediate \nLength: 2 hours \nInstructor: Norman Koren\, founder & CTO Imatest LLC \nPrerequisites: Knowledge of basic image quality measurement concepts\, especially MTF (SFR) and noise \nBenefits: \n\nthe history and mathematics of information theory in imaging\,\ndefinitions and interpretations of the information metrics\, which include camera information capacity\, Noise Equivalent Quanta\, Ideal Observer SNR (SNRi – a metric for the quality of object detection)\, and Edge location standard deviation (Edge σ – a metric for the quality of edge location).\nHow to conveniently obtain the information metrics\nthe effect of common types of image processing on metrics\, including uniform sharpening and lowpass filtering (for noise-reduction)\, as well as the nonuniform bilateral filtering found in most camera JPEG images\,\ndesign of matched filters to optimize SNRi and Edge σ\,\nprogress in correlating the new metrics with machine vision performance and developing ISO 23654\n\nIntended Audience: Engineers who design and analyze cameras and imaging systems for automotive\, medical\, security applications\, and more \nFormat: Lecture Primarily lecture\, but about 1/4 to 1/3 of the time will be demonstrations \nKey Words: MTF\, information capacity\, Artificial intelligence\, machine vision. \nRegistration is open – Click Here to register \nElectronic Imaging 2025\, held February 2–6 at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport\, offers a vibrant platform for industry and academia to advance imaging technologies. The event features plenary talks\, keynotes\, technical sessions\, networking opportunities\, an industry exhibit\, and a short course program\, covering all aspects of electronic imaging in a dynamic and collaborative environment. \nLearn more about Electronic Imaging 2025 \nIf you have any questions\, please contact info-metrics@imatest.com.

SUMMARY:Visit Imatest at the Edmund Optics Solutions Center in Cupertino Feb 6\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:After the conclusion of Electronic Imaging 2025\, Join Imatest at the Edmund Optics Silicon Valley Solutions Center for an open house that showcases our Imatest products\, followed by a happy hour on the afternoon of February 6th. See below for details and to add to your calendar. \nBring your camera that works at up to 50cm working distance\, and we can test it.  \nImatest staff attending: \n\nNorman Koren\, Founder & CTO\nJonathan Phillips\, VP of Imaging Science\nThad Baringer\, Imaging Science Sales Engineer\nAmelia Spooner\, Imaging Science Engineer\n\nIf you want to attend or have a private meeting\, contact sales@imatest.com. \nFor a private appointment with Edmund Optics\, click here and fill out their form. \nEdmund Optics Silicon Valley Solutions Center is a facility where you can integrate machine vision cameras from Allied Vision and Teledyne with Edmund Optics lenses and test them on an Imatest test fixture.  EO’s application engineers can consult with you about designing the optimal lens for your imaging task. \n\n\n@edmundoptics Our Silicon Valley Solutions Center can help you solve your imaging problems! We offer free consulting\, test spaces\, and a loaner library of lenses\, cameras\, and lights. Come visit us in Cupertino!\n\nImatest products on display here include the Benchtop Test Stand\, LED Lightbox\, Spectral Illuminance Color Sensor\, ISO 1223 2023 target\, VisNIR HDR\, high-precision checkerboard targets\, and magnetic chart holder mount. \nWe will also be showcasing some of our current innovations and development\, including our ISP/Camera Simulator (ISPsim)\, which simulates ISP pipelines and aspects of complete camera systems. We will also demonstrate how you can calculate imaging information metrics for your machine vision image quality needs.
