This page is a part of CVprimer.com, a wiki devoted to computer vision. It focuses on low level computer vision, digital image analysis, and applications. It is designed as an online textbook but the exposition is informal. It geared towards software developers, especially beginners, and CS students. The wiki contains mathematics, algorithms, code examples, source code, compiled software, and some discussion. If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact me directly.

By frames we understand a collection of binary images. It is a sequence if it comes from thresholding of a gray scale image or a 3-parameter array if it is a color image. A binary video is a sequence of its frames in the usual sense of the word. The frames of a gray scale video form a 2-parameter array.

Frames is our main tool for studying parametric images.
