  2. Computer vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_vision

    Computer vision is an interdisciplinary field that deals with how computers can be made to gain high-level understanding from digital images or videos.From the perspective of engineering, it seeks to automate tasks that the human visual system can do.

  3. Content-based image retrieval - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content-based_image_retrieval

    General scheme of content-based image retrieval. Content-based image retrieval, also known as query by image content and content-based visual information retrieval (CBVIR), is the application of computer vision techniques to the image retrieval problem, that is, the problem of searching for digital images in large databases (see this survey [1] for a scientific overview of the CBIR field).

  5. Image registration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_registration

    It is used in computer vision, medical imaging, [2] military automatic target recognition, and compiling and analyzing images and data from satellites. Registration is necessary in order to be able to compare or integrate the data obtained from these different measurements.

  6. Visual computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Computing

    Visual computing [1] is a fairly new term, which got its current meaning around 2005, when the International Symposium on Visual Computing first convened. [2] Areas of computer technology concerning images, such as image formats, filtering methods, color models, and image metrics, have in common many mathematical methods and algorithms.

  7. Perspective-n-Point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective-n-Point

    Efficient PnP (EPnP) is a method developed by Lepetit, et al. in their 2008 International Journal of Computer Vision paper [9] that solves the general problem of PnP for n ≥ 4. This method is based on the notion that each of the n points (which are called reference points) can be expressed as a weighted sum of four virtual control points ...
