Full Desc
“Image” refers to any digital or analog pictorial representation of data, including but not limited to two-dimensional frames, multi-frame sequences, three-dimensional or four-dimensional volumes, projections, renderings, heatmaps, probability maps, segmentation masks, depth or disparity maps, and the like. An image may depict physical subjects, scenes, or objects; medical or scientific phenomena (e.g., radiographs, CT, MRI, PET, fluoroscopic views, ultrasound, microscopy), documents, screens or displays, or synthetic or simulated content generated by computation, and may be acquired by cameras, scanners, sensors, or produced by reconstruction, simulation, or other computational processes, and the like.
An image may be encoded or stored in any format, resolution, bit depth, sampling scheme, or color space (including grayscale, RGB, multispectral, hyperspectral, RAW, JPEG, PNG, HEIF, TIFF, DICOM, or the like), may include embedded metadata (e.g., timestamps, geolocation, orientation, calibration data, or the like), and may be cropped, scaled, resampled, filtered, denoised, compressed, decompressed, enhanced, super-resolved, deblurred, geometrically transformed, fused, or otherwise processed without ceasing to be an image. For the avoidance of doubt, a single frame extracted from a video stream, a screenshot of on-screen imagery, and a computer-generated rendering are each treated as an image for purposes herein.
