I think it would make sense to change the naming of the _Signal Processing_ sub forum into _Signal and Image Processing_.

If traffic would justify it would be great to have both, but at the moment not having _Image Processing_ explicitly anywhere means that sometimes we get image processing related question in _Visualization_. So I think in the current numbers, it would be better to have a single forum dedicated to the low level processing of 1D and 2D signals (Yes, in the wide sense Signal Processing means all dimensions, but practically people think Signal Processing → 1D, Image Processing → 2D).

For instance, see [Is there Julia library for AI Image Denoising?](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/is-there-julia-library-for-ai-image-denoising/75688). It will be also great to move it into the correct place.

Thanks guys (@RoyiAvital and @vchuravy) so much for this additional info and for pointing me into this specific _Signal Processing_ subdomain [currently _Signal and Image Processing_] that so far I mostly associated with _The Weave Theory_. I am not aware about all the specific peculiarities related to clustering of Julia Discourse forum posts so I trust you on this matter. Just wanted to underline that from my point of view it was mostly about _visualizations_ and _artificial intelligence_. For this particular case and at that time, I was focused on this topic entirely due to my personal interest. Further, I started to think about some potential _explicit implications_ of such technologies, especially in the area related to synthetic imagery. In particular, started to wonder if such techniques could be possibly useful for _refinement / enhancement_ of _synthetic (visual) data_ generated from computer simulations (algorithms) and for its comparison with real life imagery in order to improve _assessment and validation of numerical models_ that were used for preparations of before mentioned _synthetics_. Also wondering, if you may have any comments related to the papers quoted in the source post by @Palli. I believe this could make this discussion even more interesting. Thank you.
