Description: Low-level features in computer vision refer to the fundamental visual elements used for image processing and analysis. These features include edges, colors, and textures, which are essential for visual interpretation. Edges are abrupt transitions in image intensity, allowing for the identification of contours and shapes. Colors are crucial for distinguishing different objects and their context within a scene. Textures, which describe variations in intensity and color on a surface, help identify patterns and materials. These features form the foundation upon which more complex algorithms are built for tasks such as image segmentation, object recognition, and classification. In the realm of image processing, extracting these low-level features is an initial step that enables computer vision systems to effectively understand and analyze visual content. The combination of edges, colors, and textures provides a rich and detailed representation of visual information, which is fundamental for applications across various fields, from robotics to artificial intelligence and image analysis.
