Abstract

Many methods of image restoration, geometric rectification, and image pattern recognition can be described by local operators. Processor arrays with centralized control accomplishing SIMD processing are considered as effective means for these tasks. The paper explains the main ideas and the theoretical background of representants of the before mentioned methods.
