Summary:Most traditional methodologies in digital image processing start
with a discrete model which is directly related to the subsequent
discrete processing of the image data. We review some examples and focus
on some details of an emerging new methodology that starts from some
continuous models provided by PDEs and proceeds with discrete processing
of the image data via the numerical implementation of these PDEs on some
discrete grid. We examine the PDEs modeling multiscale morphological
image analysis and the related eikonal PDE of optics. The PDE approach
is very promising because it provides many new mathematical models and
has connections with the physics of imaging
