Özet:

 Image Processing is a specialized area of Digital Signal Processing which contains various mathematical and algebraic operations such as matrix inversion, transpose of matrix, derivative, convolution, Fourier Transform etc. Operations like those require higher computational capabilities than daily usage purposes of computers. At that point, with increased image sizes and more complex operations, CPUs may be unsatisfactory since they use Serial Processing by default. GPUs are the solution that come up with greater speed compared to CPUs because of their Parallel Processing/Computation nature. A parallel computing platform and programming model named CUDA was created by NVIDIA and implemented by the graphics processing units (GPUs) which were produced by them. In this paper, computing performance of some commonly used Image Processing operations will be compared on OpenCV's built in CPU and GPU functions that use CUDA.
