The main purpose of this section is to provide a theoretical introduction to image basics – these will be explained in detail in the next section. First, a quick introduction will be given to underline the importance of some of the difficulties you will encounter when developing the image-processing set in a computer vision project, and then some simple formulation will be introduced in connection with images.

Main problems in image processing
The first concept to introduce is related to images, which can be seen as a two-dimensional (2D) view of a 3D world. A digital image is a numeric representation, normally binary, of a 2D image as a finite set of digital values, which...
