Image processing and machine learning.

First above all, I must say my writing may not correct. 

For long time, I've been wondered how image processing could be combined with machine learning. And what is each of them?

My image processing means the technology for object recognition.

I've found that there's two kind of technology for object recognition. The first one is by edge comparison and the other is by texture comparison. 

( You can know the detail processing in the upper URL. )

By the way, which attributes(factor) should you compare your image with? And do you have good images which would be compared with your image? (Yes. the good images could be kind of test oracle. )

For this problem, you can use machine learning. In other words, you can make attributes and common pattern through machine learning processing. 

( Basically, machine learning needs large amount of data input which could be image files or etc. Then, it generates various patterns. )
