Image processing

Monochrome black/white image

In imaging science, image processing is

any form of signal processing for which the

input is an image, such as a photograph or

video frame; the output of image processing

may be either an image or a set of 

characteristics or parameters related to the

image. Most image-processing techniques

involve treating the image as a

two-dimensional signal and applying

standard signal-processing techniques to it.

Image processing usually refers to digital

image processing, but optical and analog

image processing also are possible. Thisarticle is about general techniques that apply

to all of them. The acquisition of images

(producing the input image in the first place)

is referred to as imaging.

Closely related to image processing are computer graphics and computer vision. In computer graphics, images are

manually made from physical models of objects, environments, and lighting, instead of being acquired (via imaging

devices such as cameras) from natural scenes, as in most animated movies. Computer vision, on the other hand, is

often considered high-level image processing out of which a machine/computer/software intends to decipher the

physical contents of an image or a sequence of images (e.g., videos or 3D full-body magnetic resonance scans).

In modern sciences and technologies, images also gain much broader scopes due to the ever growing importance of 

scientific visualization (of often large-scale complex scientific/experimental data). Examples include microarray data

in genetic research, or real-time multi-asset portfolio trading in finance.
