Abstract: | This paper is the first in a sequence of papers describing an algebraic structure for image processing that has become known as the AFATL Standard Image Algebra. This algebra provides a common mathematical environment for image processing algorithm development and methodologies for algorithm optimization, comparison, and performance evaluation. In addition, the image algebra provides a powerful algebraic language for image processing which, if properly embedded into a high level programming language, will greatly increase a programmer's productivity as programming tasks are greatly simplified due to replacement of large blocks of code by short algebraic statements. The purpose of this paper is to familiarize the reader with the basic concepts of the algebra and to provide a general overview of its methodology. |
