What is Computer Vision in Digital Image Processing

What is Computer Vision in Digital Image Processing


Computer vision basically concerned with two things one is modeling and second one is replicating human vision using hardware and computer software. We can formally define that, computer vision is a discipline that tell us how to interrupt and understand a 3D scene from its 2d images and how to reconstruct it.

Computer Vision needs some knowledge from other fields in order to understand the operation of human vision system, listed Fields are:
What is Computer Vision in Digital Image Processing
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Biology
  • Mathematics
  • Cognitive science
  • Computer science
  • Physiology

Q: What is the hierarchy of computer vision?
We divide computer vision in to three different categories that are listed below:
High level vision: So in this vision we talk about the conceptual description of a scene like behavior, activity and intention.
Low level vision: So in this vision we talk about the feature extraction from process image.
Intermediate level vision: So in this vision we talk about 3D scene interpretations and objects recognition.

Some related fields that overlaps with computer vision are:
Photogrammetric:  We use this field to obtain accurate measurements from images.
Image Processing: We use this field for manipulation of any image.
Pattern Recognition: We talk about the different techniques to classify different patterns.

Q: What is the basic difference between image processing and computer vision?
Computer visionComputer vision is descriptions of objects (Physical) from any image. Computer vision output will be a description of structures or we can say an interpretation of structures in 3D scene.
Image ProcessingWe talk about image transformation in image processing and the output and input will be an image in image processing.

Major Examples are:
  • Security
