Image analysis
• Identifying shapes - image objects:
• Shape identification and recognition is the most
difficult challenge to image analysis since it relies on:
• Isolation of the different objects/shapes within the
image, which may not necessarily be whole or
standardized, but are likely 'hidden' in the perspectives
of the image and then
• Normalizing the object's size and rotation
• Identification and possible connection of object parts.
• Semantic identification of the image components/
objects.
