    Log scales put the data values in terms of a chosen number (the base of the log) to a particular power. The base is often e (2.71828...) or 10. For example, log scales may give a height of 1 for a value of 10 in the data and a height of 6 for a value of 1,000,000 (10 6) in the data. Log scales and variants are commonly used, for instance, for ...

  6. Image rectification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_rectification

    If the images to be rectified are taken from camera pairs without geometric distortion, this calculation can easily be made with a linear transformation.X & Y rotation puts the images on the same plane, scaling makes the image frames be the same size and Z rotation & skew adjustments make the image pixel rows directly line up [citation needed].

  7. Image stabilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_stabilization

    Image stabilization (IS) is a family of techniques that reduce blurring associated with the motion of a camera or other imaging device during exposure.. Generally, it compensates for pan and tilt (angular movement, equivalent to yaw and pitch) of the imaging device, though electronic image stabilization can also compensate for rotation about the optical axis ().
