The document discusses how image quality attributes impact computer vision performance. It begins by explaining that image quality and computer vision require expertise from multiple fields including optics, electrical engineering, and software engineering. It then discusses how factors like illumination, lenses, sensors, electronics, and digital processing can all impact image quality. The document provides examples of how issues like noise, resolution, distortion, and dead pixels can degrade computer vision systems or even fool neural networks. It emphasizes that both objective and subjective metrics are needed to fully characterize image quality and understand the effects on computer vision.
