Learning Image Processing with OpenCV

Abstract

This book provides an example-based tour of OpenCV's main image processing algorithms. Starting with an exploration of library installation, wherein the library structure and basics of image and video reading/writing are covered, you will dive into image filtering and the color manipulation features of OpenCV with LUTs. You'll then be introduced to techniques such as inpainting and denoising to enhance images as well as the process of HDR imaging. Finally, you'll master GPU-based accelerations. By the end of this book, you will be able to create smart and powerful image processing applications with ease! All the topics are described with short, easy-to-follow examples.
