Gabor filter

A Gabor filter is like a special type of tool that helps us see different patterns in pictures. Imagine you have a picture of a face, but some parts of it are darker or lighter than others. The Gabor filter can help us see the individual parts of the face more clearly by making the different areas more distinct.

It's like using a magnifying glass to look at something up close! The filter looks at the picture in small sections (called "pixels") to find patterns like lines or curves that help distinguish one part from another. It then uses these patterns to highlight the parts of the picture that are important.

This tool is often used in things like facial recognition technology and medical imaging to help doctors identify different parts of the body.
