Since template-based matching may require sampling of a large number of data points, it is often desirable to reduce the number of sampling points by reducing the resolution of search and template images by the same factor before performing the operation on the resultant downsized images. This pre-processing method creates a multi-scale, or ...
After the stage of image preprocessing (which may include image denoising, post processing like morphology etc.) object localisation is required which may make use of this technique. Foreground detection separates foreground from background based on these changes taking place in the foreground.
OpenCV (Open Source Computer Vision Library) is a library of programming functions mainly for real-time computer vision. [2] Originally developed by Intel, it was later supported by Willow Garage, then Itseez (which was later acquired by Intel [3]).
The Hough transform [3] can be used to detect lines and the output is a parametric description of the lines in an image, for example ρ = r cos(θ) + c sin(θ). [1] If there is a line in a row and column based image space, it can be defined ρ, the distance from the origin to the line along a perpendicular to the line, and θ, the angle of the perpendicular projection from the origin to the ...

Example of 3 median filters of varying radiuses applied to the same noisy photograph. The median filter is a non-linear digital filtering technique, often used to remove noise from an image, [1] signal, [2] and video. [3] Such noise reduction is a typical pre-processing step to improve the results of later processing (for example, edge ...
Video of the process of scanning and real-time optical character recognition (OCR) with a portable scanner. Optical character recognition or optical character reader (OCR) is the electronic or mechanical conversion of images of typed, handwritten or printed text into machine-encoded text, whether from a scanned document, a photo of a document, a scene photo (for example the text on signs and ...
Informally, a blob is a region of an image in which some properties are constant or approximately constant; all the points in a blob can be considered in some sense to be similar to each other. The most common method for blob detection is by using convolution.
