IMAGE CROPPING

To “crop” an image is to remove or adjust the outside edges of an image (typically a photo) to
improve framing or composition, draw a viewer's eye to the subject, or change the size or aspect
ratio.

RESIZING

mage resizing is necessary when you need to increase or decrease the total number of pixels,
whereas remapping can occur when you are correcting for lens distortion or rotating an image.
Zooming refers to increase the quantity of pixels, so that when you zoom an image, you will see more
detail.

IMAGE THRESHOLDING

Image thresholding is a simple, yet effective, way of partitioning an image into a foreground and
background. This image analysis technique is a type of image segmentation that isolates objects by
converting grayscale images into binary images.

CONTOUR ANALYSIS

Contours can be explained simply as a curve joining all the continuous points (along the boundary),
having same color or intensity. The contours are a useful tool for shape analysis and object detection
and recognition.

BOLB DETECTION

blob detection methods are aimed at detecting regions in a digital image that differ in properties,
such as brightness or color, compared to surrounding regions.

IMAGE ANNOTATION

Image annotation can be understood as the process of labeling images to outline the target
characteristics of your data on a human level. The result is then used to train a model and,
depending on the quality of your data, achieve the desired level of accuracy in computer
vision tasks.
IMAGE ENHANCEMENT

Image enhancement is the process of adjusting digital images so that the results are more suitable
for display or further image analysis. For example, you can remove noise, sharpen, or brighten an
image, making it easier to identify key features.

HISTOGRAM

histogram of an image normally refers to a histogram of the pixel intensity values. This histogram is a
graph showing the number of pixels in an image at each different intensity value found in that image.

CONVOLUTION

Convolution is the process of adding each element of the image to its local neighbours, weighted by
the kernel.

IMAGE SMOOTHING

Image smoothing is a digital image processing technique that reduces and suppresses image noises.

IMAGE SEGMENTATION

Image segmentation is a commonly used technique in digital image processing and analysis to
partition an image into multiple parts or regions, often based on the characteristics of the pixels in
the image.

GRAPH CUT

Graph cut is a semiautomatic segmentation technique that you can use to segment an image into
foreground and background elements.

CALIBRATION

Camera calibration is the process of calculating the extrinsic and intrinsic properties of a camera.

POSE ESTIMATION

Pose Estimation is a computer vision task where the goal is to detect the position and orientation of
a person or an object.

STEREOSCOPIC IMAGE

Stereoscopic Imaging is a technique used for creating or enhancing the illusion that an image has
depth by showing two slightly offset images separately to each eye of the viewer.

KALMAN FILTER

Kalman filter works with all available information, i.e. it uses all available measured data, system
model together with statistical description of its inaccuracies, noise and measurement errors as well
as information about initial conditions and initial state of the system.

CAM SHIFT

To reduce computational complexity of the methods used during that period and to deal with
problems such as image noise, distractors.
IMAGE RESTORATION

Image restoration is the process of recovering an image from a degraded version—usually a blurred
and noisy image.

IMAGE SCALING

Image scaling refers to the resizing of a digital image. In video technology, the magnification of digital
material is known as upscaling or resolution enhancement.
