1. Image Acquisition
Image acquisition is the first step of the fundamental steps of DIP. In this stage, an image is given in
the digital form. Generally, in this stage, pre-processing such as scaling is done.

2. Image Enhancement
Image enhancement is the simplest and most attractive area of DIP. In this stage details which are
not known, or we can say that interesting features of an image is highlighted. Such as brightness,
contrast, etc...
3. Image Restoration
Color image processing is a famous area because it has increased the use of digital images on the
internet. This includes color modeling, processing in a digital domain, etc....
5. Wavelets and Multi-Resolution Processing
In this stage, an image is represented in various degrees of resolution. Image is divided into smaller
regions for data compression and for the pyramidal representation.
6. Compression
Compression is a technique which is used for reducing the requirement of storing an image. It is a
very important stage because it is very necessary to compress data for internet use.
7. Morphological Processing
This stage deals with tools which are used for extracting the components of the image, which is
useful in the representation and description of shape.

8. Segmentation
In this stage, an image is a partitioned into its objects. Segmentation is the most difficult tasks in DIP.
It is a process which takes a lot of time for the successful solution of imaging problems which
requires objects to identify individually.
9. Representation and Description
Representation and description follow the output of the segmentation stage. The output is a raw pixel
data which has all points of the region itself. To transform the raw data, representation is the only
solution. Whereas description is used for extracting information's to differentiate one class of objects
from another.
10. Object recognition
In this stage, the label is assigned to the object, which is based on descriptors.
11. Knowledge Base
Knowledge is the last stage in DIP. In this stage, important information of the image is located, which
limits the searching processes. The knowledge base is very complex when the image database has a
high-resolution satellite.
Image Transformation
An image is obtained in spatial coordinates (x, y) or (x, y, z). There are many advantages if the spatial
domain image is transformed into another domain. In which solution of any problem can be found
easily.
Following are two types of transformations:

1. Fourier Transform
Fourier transform is mainly used for image processing. In the Fourier transform, the intensity of the
image is transformed into frequency variation and then to the frequency domain. It is used for slow
varying intensity images such as the background of a passport size photo can be represented as
low-frequency components and the edges can be represented as high-frequency components. Low-
frequency components can be removed using filters of FT domain. When an image is filtered in the
FT domain, it contains only the edges of the image. And if we do inverse FT domain to spatial domain
then also an image contains only edges. Fourier transform is the simplest technique in which edges
of the image can be fined.

In Discrete Cosine Transformation, coefficients carry information about the pixels of the image. Also,
much information is contained using very few coefficients, and the remaining coefficient contains
minimal information. These coefficients can be removed without losing information. By doing this, the
file size is reduced in the DCT domain. DCT is used for lossy compression.
