Interpolation results in a loss of image data.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Interpolation is the process of changing the matrix size after the image has been acquired.The matrix can be changed from a larger size to a smaller size, or from a smaller size to a larger size.When an image is interpolated, there is no loss of data.The data is redistributed from one pixel to the adjacent pixels.Because of the shifting of counts from one pixel to the next, smoothing (linear) should be applied to the image to ensure an even distribution of counts.
