# Types of Image Processing Operations
## Point wise operations
- Context free
- Can be performed on [[Image Histograms]]
- $g(x, y)=M(f(x, y))$
- Example: $g(x, y)=\alpha \cdot f(x, y)+\beta$
## Neighborhood Operations
- Context dependent
- $g(x, y)=M(\{f(i, j) \mid(i, j) \in N(x, y)\})$
- Spatial domain ([[Convolution]])
- Frequency domain ([[Discrete Fourier Transform]]
- Binary image analysis ([[Mathematical Morphology]])
- [[Connected Component Analysis]]
## Geometric operations
- Operation on pixel's coordinates
- Independent of pixels value
- Context free
- Rotation, translation, affine ([[Linear Algebra#Linear Transformations]])
