Abstract

Digital continuous functions and gradually varied functions were developed in the late 1980s. A. Rosenfeld [24] proposed digital continuous functions for digital image analysis, especially to describe the “continuous” component of a digital image, which usually indicates an object. L. Chen [6] invented gradually varied functions to interpolate a digital surface when sample points in its boundary appear to be gradually varied. In this introduction chapter, we will describe the necessity of developing such a method and its relationship to modern numerical analysis and even functional analysis. We will also discuss the various applications of developing this theory and its role in predicting future trends.
