Métodos Digitais, Análise de Imagens, Imagens Digitais, Revisão SistemáticaResumo
Este artigo investiga o uso de métodos digitais para análise de imagens. Através de uma revisão sistemática da literatura de 41 estudos publicados entre 2013 e 2023 em inglês, espanhol e português, a pesquisa aborda três questões-chave: (1) Quais recursos são utilizados para a análise de imagens e coleções de imagens?; (2) Quando esses recursos são aplicados?; e (3) Como eles são implementados? A revisão, realizada em quatro bases de dados acadêmicas, identificou 76 recursos distintos, categorizados por etapa da pesquisa (coleta de dados, refinamento de datasets, análise de imagens e construção de visualizações) e pela exigência de habilidades de programação. O estudo destaca as principais abordagens para a análise de imagens digitais, a natureza dinâmica das ferramentas digitais e a adaptabilidade dos pesquisadores em reaproveitar recursos para a análise de imagens.
