Java Advanced Imaging API: A Tutorial
Rafael Santos1
Abstract: This tutorial shows how the Java language and its Java Advanced Imaging
(JAI) Application Program Interface (API) can be used to create applications for
image representation, processing and visualization. The Java language advantages are
its low cost, licensing independence and inter-platform portability. The JAI API advantages
are its flexibility and variety of image processing operators.
The purpose of this tutorial is to present the basic concepts of the JAI API, including
several complete and verified code samples which implements simple image processing
and visualization operations. At the end of the tutorial the reader should be able
to implement his/her own algorithms using the Java language and the JAI API.
Keywords: Image processing, Algorithms, Java, Java Advanced Imaging.
1 Introduction
In spite of the existence of several image processing softwares with many image processing
functions, tailored for several different uses, there is often the need for implementation
of specific algorithms which are not available on those softwares - for example, a user
may want to implement his/her own image classification or filtering algorithm or tweak some
already implemented algorithm parameters. Some of those softwares allow the development…
