Recognition of patterns is a cognitive task that is easy for human beings but is extremely difficult to embed into computing systems. Pattern Recognition theory is vast and currently advances in Machine Learning have brought new insights. The applications of Pattern Recognition are wide ranging, however Image Processing is one such area, which spreads across Industry Applications such as Biometrics, Medical Image Processing, Satellite Geospatial data processing, Document Image Processing, Optical Character Recognition etc,. Computer Vision focuses on Human Computer Interaction, Camera Sensors and Intelligence
