Weak Links in the Chain
John R. Schott · 2007
Abstract In much of our discussion to this point, we have simplified many of the equations and concepts in order to introduce and deal with the fundamental or governing equations. In doing so, we recognize that there are times when the simplifications will be less valid than desired and that, in general, noise and/or error sources should become part of the equation. In analyzing an individual image or image product, we have to realize that it is the net result of the entire image chain: acquisition conditions, sensor system, processing procedures, and display or analysis.
