Introduction In the era of the industrial revolution 4. 0 and digital transformation, digital image processing has become a major pillar in the development of information Digital image processing is the process of manipulating and analyzing images in digital form using computer algorithms, with the aim of improving visualization and extracting valuable information . , . Digital image processing is a branch of science that uses computer algorithms to manipulate and analyze objects in digital images. With the rapid development of information technology and artificial intelligence, this technique has evolved from simply improving image quality to becoming a primary tool in feature extraction and object identification. In recent years, learning-based convolutional neural networks (CNN) and Vision Transformer (ViT), have succeeded in improving the accuracy and efficiency of tasks such as object segmentation, detection, and recognition . , . In the information technology era of 2024, object detection becomes an important component in various real applications from autonomous vehicles and surveillance systems to telemedicine and augmented reality devices . For example. YOLO. Detectron2, and EfficientDet algorithms are becoming industry standards due to their real-time and high-precision capabilities that are highly needed in smart manufacturing , smart agriculture, and medical applications in detection . , . In the context of object identification, for example in vehicle license plate detection applications, medical diagnosis, or security systems, such as pre-processing, object segmentation, and feature extraction become very crucial. Segmentation techniques, edge detection . uch as Sobel. Cann. , and shape and texture extraction methods (Local Binary Pattern, histogra. are used to separate and recognize objects from complex backgrounds . , . Recent developments also show the integration between classical image processing and artificial intelligence technologies, such as deep learning and neural networks. This approach drives object identification systems to be more accurate and adaptive to visual variations, surpassing the capabilities of traditional methods. In the medical field, deep learning enables automatic detection of abnormalities from MRI or CT images with a high degree of reliability, while in automotive automated guidance systems leverage computer vision to recognize signs and pedestrians in real-time . , . , . In short, digital image processing not only improves image quality, but also becomes the backbone of object detection automation.
