The image API focuses on natural image table pipelines and general image table abstractions backed by SAS CAS data.
These APIs support tasks such as:
- representing image tables in Python
- loading and materializing table-backed image content
- determining whether images are already decoded
- applying image-related transformations or masks
In most cases, image analysis pipelines begin with a CAS table and proceed through a
cvpy abstraction that makes retrieval and manipulation easier from Python code.
