The resulting image is larger than the original, and preserves all the original detail, but has (possibly undesirable) jaggedness. The diagonal lines of the "W", for example, now show the "stairway" shape characteristic of nearest-neighbor interpolation. Other scaling methods below are better at preserving smooth contours in the image.
The Harris corner detector is a corner detection operator that is commonly used in computer vision algorithms to extract corners and infer features of an image. It was first introduced by Chris Harris and Mike Stephens in 1988 upon the improvement of Moravec's corner detector. [1]
In image processing, histogram matching or histogram specification is the transformation of an image so that its histogram matches a specified histogram. [1] The well-known histogram equalization method is a special case in which the specified histogram is uniformly distributed .
Template matching [1] is a technique in digital image processing for finding small parts of an image which match a template image. It can be used for quality control in manufacturing, [2] navigation of mobile robots, [3] or edge detection in images.
The first alpha version of OpenCV was released to the public at the IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition in 2000, and five betas were released between 2001 and 2005. The first 1.0 version was released in 2006. A version 1.1 "pre-release" was released in October 2008. The second major release of the OpenCV was in October 2009.
Object recognition – technology in the field of computer vision for finding and identifying objects in an image or video sequence. Humans recognize a multitude of objects in images with little effort, despite the fact that the image of the objects may vary somewhat in different view points, in many different sizes and scales or even when they are translated or rotated.
Adaptive histogram equalization (AHE) is a computer image processing technique used to improve contrast in images. It differs from ordinary histogram equalization in the respect that the adaptive method computes several histograms, each corresponding to a distinct section of the image, and uses them to redistribute the lightness values of the image.
Computer stereo vision is the extraction of 3D information from digital images, such as those obtained by a CCD camera.By comparing information about a scene from two vantage points, 3D information can be extracted by examining the relative positions of objects in the two panels.
