Image processingComputingImage processing Computer manipulation of images. Some of the many algorithms used in image processing include convolution (on which many others are based), FFT, DCT, thinning (or skeletonization), edge detection and contrast enhancement. These are usually implemented in software but may also use special purpose hardware for speed. Image processing contrasts with computer graphics, which is usually more concerned with the generation of artificial images, and visualization, which attempts to understand (real-world) data by displaying it as an artificial image (e.g.a graph). Image processing is used in image recognition and computer vision. Silicon Graphics manufacture workstations which are often used for image processing. There are a few programming languages designed for image processing, e.g. CELIP, VPL. See also Pilot European Image Processing Archive. Usenet newsgroup: news: sci.image.processing.

Image ProcessingSpaceEncompasses all the various operations which can be applied to photographic or image data. These include, but are not limited to image compression, image restoration, image enhancement, preprocessing, quantization, spatial filtering and other image pattern recognition techniques.

Pilot European Image Processing ArchiveComputing(PEIPA) An archive devoted to image processing, computer vision, and computer graphics. It includes software, images, reference material, and miscellaneous goodies. The archive is funded by the British Machine Vision Association (BMVA) and the University of Essex and is closely associated with the Pixel mailing list and Technical Committee 5 (Benchmarking and Software) of the IAPR.
