Abstract
The concept of the digital image was first introduced in the transportation of the digital image using submarine cable system in the early twenty century [3] (Gonzalez and Woods in Digital Image Processing, Prentice Hall, New Jersey, 2006). In addition, the advance in the computational hardware and processing unit lead to the development of modern digital image processing techniques. Specifically, the digital image processing started in the application field of remote sensing. In 1964, the Jet Propulsion Laboratory applied the digital image processing technique to improve the visual quality of the transmitted digital image by Ranger 7 [1] (Andrews et al. in IEEE Spectr. 9(7):20–32, 1972), [3] (Gonzalez and Woods in Digital Image Processing, Prentice Hall, New Jersey, 2006). In the medical imaging, the image processing techniques were applied to develop the computerized tomography for medical imaging devices in early 1970s, which generates a two-dimensional image and three-dimensional volume of the inside of the object by passing the X-ray [3] (Gonzalez and Woods in Digital Image Processing, Prentice Hall, New Jersey, 2006). In addition to the remote sensing and medical imaging, the digital image processing techniques have been widely used in various application fields such as consumer electronics, defense, robot vision, surveillance systems, and artificial intelligence systems.
