I’ll be sharing papers and materials here that I find fascinating—think Python scripts, some good ol’ Algebra, or even quirky historical tidbits. It’s a mixed bag of curiosity and nerdy fun!
That said, a quick but important note: much of this content is sourced from various websites, and all copyrights belong to the original authors. I’m just the middleman passing on the joy of learning, so if you enjoy the content, do consider checking out the original sources to support their work!

A few Jupyter notebooks (https://github.com/indranil-sscu/image-processing.git) on digital image processing techniques, the codes aren't efficient enough however they will convey what each of the built-in functions in Matlab / OpenCV are meant to do. Do read this excellent article on filters and convolution before getting your hands dirty https://www.cs.umd.edu/~djacobs/CMSC426/Convolution.pdf
