What to read about image processing in Java?

Question

Java

Hello.
Tell me what to read about image processing?
I need to load an image from the hard drive, then process it (enhance, binarize, etc.), and select some kind of control points.
As I understand it, these are all separate algorithms, but I don’t know in what form to load and store images.
Tell me what to read on this topic, please.

Answer 1

The correct answer is of course not to process images in Java :)
