Image processing involves analyzing, manipulating, and storing digital images using computer software. It includes tasks like cropping, resizing, adjusting contrast and applying filters to images. Image processing has applications in fields like television, medicine, surveillance and more. It involves areas like acquisition, enhancement, restoration, compression and recognition. Image restoration aims to improve degraded images back to their original state. Noise removal is an important aspect of restoration, and common types of noise include Gaussian and impulse noise. Various filters can be used for noise removal, such as mean, median and advanced algorithms.
