Assignment 1
Byungho's Findings
To enhance image quality, most of S/W use convolution algorithm with sharpen kernel. The convolution algorithm is based on matrix matrix multiplication and the kernel which consists of 3 x 3 matrix or 5 x 5 matrix. Therefore, as we learned at the GPU610 class, I can speed up the program using CUDA library

SeungYeon's Findings
There are many types of image processing or operations can be done. Some of examples are rotating,re-sizing,blurring, etc... For Assignment 1, I decided to work with one of the operation that can be done with an image in c++, which deals with brightness and contrast of an image. I was able to find a open source code from "openCV" website it stands for Open Source Computer Vision, is open source libraries developed by Intel for image and video processing. The libraries can be installed in any platform, and i was able to install it in my windows platform, and all test runs all done using visual studio 2013, Test file is compiled and profiled using performance wizard vs13. Following website openCV.org is an official documentation website of openCV libraries, with code examples for many image and video type operations
The open source code for the program requires 3 user inputs which are path to an image and alpha,beta values which will be multiplied and added to each pixels' in the image. To make sure test run is accurate, i had to change some code in the program and hard code in the values for alpha and beta.
Here is two test runs using same image but in different file size
Test run with an image size of 500KB
Total Time takes is 12 seconds
Test run with an image size of 2MB
Total Time takes is 14 seconds
SeungYeons' observation for As_1
Changing contrast and brightness of an image in the function is implemented with a scale * matrix operation. M_A(x,y) = ALPHA * M_B(x,y) + BETA;
