A differentiation between Image Mining and Computer Vision in the application area of Big Data
Sebastian Trinks, Carsten Felden · 2020
The technological progress in image acquisition, image processing, and improvements in the field of big data in the last decades opens a wide range of possible applications for image processing using analytical methods. The most popular concepts in this field of tension are computer vision and image mining. However, the issue is that there is no clear distinction between these two concepts in the current scientific discussion. To address this need, a structured literature review was carried out. Thereby, the key characteristics as well as the process of image mining could be identified and compared to computer vision. Thus, this research in progress study was a first step towards differentiating these two concepts. In conclusion, a hypothesis could be derived, which will be considered now in our ongoing research.
