3.2. Digital Image Processing
Following the Image Acquisition sub-process, the Digital Image Processing sub-process Actinomycin D presented in Fig. 3. It is divided into two sub-processes: Image Preprocessing and Feature Extraction. The Image Preprocessing sub-process aims to improve images and its output is a modified image. The Feature Extraction sub-process aims to extract sets of measurements which characterize either the entire image or some component thereof, and the output consists of information about the image content.

The Image Preprocessing sub-process receives an image as input and generates a modified image as output, which should be suitable for the next step, Feature Extraction. The Image Preprocessing sub-process may perform noise removal, enhancement, and segmentation. The BPMN diagram shown in Fig. 4 indicates that one or more of these functions can be applied in parallel or individually, and that plasmids can be performed several times until the quality of the image is satisfactory.
